RobertISaar Posted August 29, 2013 Report Posted August 29, 2013 a long time ago, they were advertised in Summit catalogs..... but from what i'm told, they needed a lot of prep work to get them presentable. all kinds of wavy. Quote
l67ss Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Posted August 29, 2013 I could live with having to fix waviness if the hood had the right price tag i just couldnt live with the fast and furious rejects ive been finding : Quote

19Cutlass94 Posted September 4, 2013 Report Posted September 4, 2013 The fiberglass hoods for these cars are very heavy. Main reason I didn't get one before my car was painted. Stock hood was actually lighter. If your looking to loose weight, then just cut out the bracing under it and use hood pins. Sent from my iPhone Quote
