Post Couple of questions

Hey all! just a couple of quick inquiries. First off, Where can I find a relatively inexpensive cowl hood that uses stock latches (either steel or reinforced fiberglass) for a 1980 el camino? The other question is anyone know a good way to get bullet holes out of sheet metal? I have a 1960 El camino and some ....lovely person stole it and put 6 decorations down the passenger side rear quarter..........well at least it was recovered.....
they go all the way through the first metal wall and they got stuck on the interior of the passenger side bed wall.... so I have entrance and exit wounds

weld in sheet metal behind the holes ,grind smooth and then fill the small surface depth with fiberglass and sand, i wouldint use bondo, not nearly as strong as fiberglass. As for the hood, probably summit racing, or jegs.com, just search for chevy parts on the net, there's a billion of them. good luck, Matt
