  I have a 1955 Cadillac hood that the body shop says it is sprung/twisted beyond use. It's been moved around the garage for years. I really don't what to just take it to the scrape yard. One idea I had was to cut it behind the mounting holes for the goddess and install a spare goddess then mount it on the wall. Anyone have any other ideas other then using it as a sled in the winter?

Keep Cruzin,

If you can't make some type of art out of it I'd say scrap it.  I know that sounds like blasphemy here but once an item has been rusted/bent beyond its usefulness what else its it good for?
