FIBERGLASS HOOD INFO NEEDED

[PURTBOY]

HEY ALL, I AM HAVING DESPERATE PROBLEMS FINDING A GOOD MINIMAL RUST HOOD FOR MY 68. I WAS WONDERING ABOUT THE FIBERGLASS ONES! HAS ANYONE USED ONE, AND DO YOU HAVE TO SWAP OUT HOOD HINGES? IF SO WHERE DO YOU LOCATE THE WEAKER HINGES FOR THE FIBERGLASS ONE OR WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? ANY HELP APPRECIATED!!

THANKS,
BRIAN

usually places that sell fiberblass hoods have weaker hinge springs, Ive had one, didnt fit very well so I traded it for steel one

I wondered about the softer springs also

Vfn & Glastek both make very nice 'glass hoods. They sell the hoods and scoops seperately but you can have either company mold in the scoop for an additional fee. R2 has a vfn hood on his 69rt/se and it's a very nice looking/fitting hood.

man after shopping around for a R/T or super hood shaker hood, man it is cheaper to go with the fiber glass, if you have good hidge springs like I do, then you can use them, there is nothing wrong with my hood, but I am buying a fiber glass so my new engine I am putting in will fit in.

 PURTBOY I have one I let you have cheap. Say $75.00 plus shipping. You would need to run a 6-Pack hood scoop, has a hole cut in it for a tunnel ram. I was goning to use it for a blowen 440.

If you think you might want it I post a PIC.

If Purtboy doesn't want it, I'd like to put in dibs for second crack at it. To clarify, it's a steel hood Ken?
