I give that hood MAYBE two Minnesota winters before it's swiss cheese.

You know that wouldn't be a bad idea.... Like a clear hood but its rusty and it has holes in it so you could see the uber nice engine parts also it would have a purpose heat extractor and induction. Oh and don't forget about the weight reduction

i like the hood but im wiff every one else. any longer and that hood will just flip up and form fit its self to yer wind sheild and roof line.

You may very well have started the next trend. What a natural progression from the rusty one. I can see it now.

I don't see how the hood could start to rust thru with holes. And I'm also not seeing how the rust is effecting the strutctual integrity or the latch. But thanks anyway

i keep forgetting you dont drive that wounderfuly decidant ,smooth sexy...........hghgmmmmm, sorry i know the rust is either painted or just surface patina, but still it is minnesota and they spray salt in the summer, so its only a matter of time before yer hood is more armor plating for the windshield than a cover for yer clean, spotless,centrificly blown...............again im sorry.

Actually I've been keeping an eye on that hood and other than a delightful surface fur of rust it's still structurally solid ! Now I'm not an expert on rust but after owning mostly Chevys for 45 years I beleive I should recognize the danger signs ! For all of you that love that hood you'll be happy to know it could last for years .Hell in a year or two Steve will probally want for his car as it was a perfect C/D silver hood-still has no dents !---o6designs-katzup
