Full Version: Front hood steel.
Does anybody happen to know the gauge of the sheet steel on the front hood, please?
Very cool to see that. I didn't realize there were different thicknesses for the fender vs the lids. I knew there were some bits that are thicker.
I ran the pic through ocr trace and google translate and did a few corrections/guesses to get this
