Wow! That is a really sweet looking ride! I love the color. Is the hood completely enclosed or is the back of the scoop open? Also, how much clearance do you actually get inside the cowl?

I do like the look without the side molding.  Since I can't give away my Bird I was thinking of getting rid of the side molding as it seems to dominate the side view.  I was thinking of how to taper the bumper moldings for a smoother transition but yours looks good the way it is.  I like the cleaner look.

Nice job.
