Next!

Just a little update because I'm so far behind on my posting.  Continuing my theme of smallest to biggest, I fixed some more cracks on the Vipers hood.  Same process as the last ones and like all the others they looked like tiny imperfections until I started grinding into them.  Same location too, the corners of the hood scoop hole create stress points where cracks will start if flexed enough.  You can so see that I've got a tarp laid out under the hood.  It's there to keep most of the dust out of the engine compartment, and catch any drips of fiberglass resin or Bondo.  For the time being, I'm also not worried about fiberglassing over the paint.  Normally that's a huge no-no, but the whole area will be sanded down to bare fiberglass before the bodywork is completed, and none of the paint overlapped areas will still be there once that's done.
