Your 70 has an earlier model hood on it, but I actually think that scoop looks real good on it.

Diggin the sidepipes aslo. Looks like a nice starting point.

I am kinda diggin' that scoop and the pipes as well. The scoop looks to be an old Trans Am scoop turned backwards. I can't tell, but, are there louvers in the hood, or did someone smooth them out? It is an older hood.

Not bad at all there. A set of Cragars or kidney beans and call it done. Throw in an aftermarket wiring harness, maybe drop the back end a couple inches (or not, run 14 or 15 front with a 15 or 16 rear).

What you get for the lowrider rims that are on it should buy harness and a decent set of used wheels. And lunch.

I wouldn't even color coat it.

By the lack of grille to hood gapping I'd bet that is a 68 hood...
