Hello all i have a small project idea in mind to reproduce a monaro style bonnet from a standard vt bonnet no fiberglass all steel.
To begin with i have a donour vt so a spare bonnet, i also work in metal fabrication (not panel beating thow) I'm reasonably confident i can replicate the bonnet but my problem is measurements length, width, hight, how far from the back of the bonnet the flute starts to where it ends, width of the curve down the side at the highest point to work out the curve angle etc. hopefully you get my point.
Anyway i don't have access to a original bonnet so i am hoping someone could help please, when i start the project which won't be for a little while, I will post pics in stages if anyone is interested seeing how i did it (as long as i don't stuff it up lol)
I was told "You won't be able to do that" like waving a red flag i am determined to do it now and make it look good with no bog I'm hoping a filler primer then paint at the end.
Thanks in advance for any help
