    Need an opinion

    An auto type choke with a bad pull off can cause what you describe. Bad spring can also cause similar symptoms. I am assuming you do not have a manual choke or you would know that.

    1970 F100 SWB CV/TBird build

    Well here are some pics of the hood as it stands. It still needs finish work done so this is raw form. I am planning on making the Fordification show in Anderson, MO so anyone there can get a much closer look.When the truck is finished it will have 3/16"-1/4" gaps on all panels.
