Anson wheels/ Motion hood

**livettes** · #1 09-23-2003, 01:18 AM

This is my first post. I am in the process of restoring a 68 big block vette that has a Motion Phase III kit installed by the original owner. Could anyone tell me the size & backspacing of the Anson wheels that were put on these cars. Also I am in search of a Motion hood. If your wondering this is the rough old car that was at the reunion. I had an wonderful time this is a great bunch of guys.

www.up22.com This site has loads of hoods and fiberglass for all kinds of cars, and should have a phase 3 hood for your corvette. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Apparently Hot Rod Magazine thinks that their hoods are good enough to go on their project cars. I've likewise seen other people with hoods from the same company (70-81 Camaro), and they look fine to me. For an L-88 style camaro hood, would you rather buy one from Motion for $600, or one from www.up22.com for $220. To me, the choice is obvious. The less expensive one duh!

You can still buy directly from Legendary Fiberglass in PA who was one of the original suppliers to Motion.

John when you wait 8 weeks for their Great hood and it's 7/16 too narrow in the back and 3/8 too wide in the front and the inner structure in the front hits the rad support and it sets 2inches above the front fenders it's crap pic enclosed
