I picked up some insulation at a Home Depot that was 3/4" thick, fairly rigid, and the good part- almost a chrome, reflective finish on one side. I cut it a little larger than the openings on the hood ( a 69 goodmark, good year, good heavens, whatever) high scoop on my 68) and pushed it in. It was stiff enough to stay in place without help. Nowwwwwwwww, I never drove the car more than 10 or 15 miles at a time so I don't know what heat would do over time. Cleaned up easy and was kinda car showey...if that's a word. If you need, I can shoot a picture to ya.

I should be able to get some somewhere around here. Thanks for the offer though. I actually have a second set now because one of the pieces from the first set got damaged. I'm wondering if there is any advantage to stacking them so that I can glue it all to the underside of the hood in the center. That would also solve everything. Right now it seems like there is too much space between the frame and the sheet metal to glue one layer of the insulation directly to the underside of the sheet metal. John Nasta -----Original Message----- John, you can only use chicken wire if it is held in place with baling wire. I have a few rolls if you need any. Brian
