Trail Twister hood

Post by twisted76 »

I have a 76 340 TT which I am restoring and am getting ready to paint the hood. Problem is I have 2 hoods and I think one is a 75. They are identical except one has an additional hole about 4" x 4" in the dash. Both have 2 holes where you can see the motor when sitting on the sled. The additional hole is in the dash closer to the steering column.

All 75 S/T, T/T, and 76 T/T hoods are the same. Should only have the holes below the windshield.

When you paint the hood could you post the paint code. Im restoring a 76 tt. Who did you find to paint your hood?(body shop?)

Did not have a paint code so I took my spare hood in with a decal peeled off to reveal the original white.
Ended up just getting a bright white acrylic enamel paint.
I painted it myself because I have the equipment but a body shop will also do it for you.
Turned out a pretty good match as the Mercs were really about as white as you could get.
