Hood Springs Restored

I was excited to see the UPS delivery of our new Camaro hood springs, so Zach and I headed out to the garage to fix the Camaro. We cut a piece of wood to hold the hood up, then removed both springs. We scuffed up the springs with a Scotchbrite pad and masked up the entire front end before painting the hinges. After we installed the new springs, the hood opens and closes perfectly, and looks great!

We also decided that the Chevelle needed some new plug wires, after our close inspection found 4 bunrt boots. We installed a new set, but this time we put some fiberglass heat insulation boots on at the plug ends. It rubs much better now, and I'm just waiting for a call from my local armature up the road....they are building us a new hi-output alternator.
