Default Engine compartment

I am thinking about a custom engine compartment in my 76.Anyone done this in a C3? If so are there any pictures of the finished product and the materials used? Any opinions would be helpful

Hi Bob,
There are so many great looking engine compartments, done in so many ways and styles, that I guess a description of what you're thinking about will help get you some pictures.
Regards,
Alan
