    How To Make A Hood Pattern

     



    Hey Guys, I got the instructions from Rotlieb on how to make a pattern for them to make me a hood. The istructions say to start by running a 3/4" masking tape strip UNDER THE BELTLINE STARTING AT THE MIDDLE OF THE DOOR FORWARD. WHAT IS THE BELTLINE???

    generally it's the line that separates the roof section from the lower body section. Depending on which model you're working with it could be somewhat lower, highlighted by a stamped reveal. Extending forward, it is where the upper hood section separates from the side panels.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
