Do you have the turn signal indicators that goes in the back end of the scoop?
The scoop is not painted yet. I am going to paint it black this weekend and hand it off to my older brother to hand paint something on the top and then I will clear coat it.
Last month at a local car show, I picked up a set of original turn signal assemblies and the wiring harness with bulb sockets. The Mustang vendor wanted $120 for the parts and wouldn't budge, so I walked. 2 hours later I found the parts, in better shape and paid $32
This flat black paint is hard to get smooth. Not so much on the sides, back end, or front end, but the larger surface. I know it's because I am using a rattle can and the short width of the spray. I have to make so many passes, that it's hard to get it right. I never really noticed it on the lighter colors that I have sprayed.
The 3G and headlamp relays is always a good idea for multiple reasons. I think you can tap in to the original T/S wiring but you have to do it so they don't come on with the park lamps. The 1969 mustang hood turn indicators took industry number 1895 bulbs. (C3AZ13466B) #1895 bulbs were only 2 candle power. Compared to the #1157 bulbs front and back were 32.3 candle power each. So I doubt hooking up the hood bulbs will slow the turn signals down any.
2X. I always did think that was a Bad Azz lookin' scoop. Hey Pat, was it Bobby that was talking about 69 Mustang-I-fying his Bump a while back? Wonder how he's doing.
I messed around with the scoop all day. I had to enlarge the signal indicator openings for 2 reasons.
1 - Enlarged the bottom edge so that the scoop would rest on the hood.
2 - Enlarged the top by about 3/4" so that the bulb hole was fully exposed and so that all prongs of the bulb socket fit securely in the hole.
On the newly exposed metal, I masked around it and sprayed some clear to prevent rusting.
I also had to ream holes in the underside of the hood to allow me to push the bulbs into the indicator assemblies.
