i have a 71 super bee hood with insert and 383 mag emblems in good shape, its been on my 73 charger in a garage since 91. I was wondering what it is worth? im also wondering what a 73 buldge hood cost does not need call out numbers for engine., as im looking to replace the bee hood with a bulge hood. thanks

What kind of condition are they in?

Id say in OK condition (no major rust but needs some attention) the std bulge will go for 400-600$ in pristine condition maybe closer to $800-900...with the new fiberglass bulges they have out now (which fit pretty well) it kind of made the OE stuff drop in price a bit.

If you want to save some cash and dont need origional sheet metal, fiberglass one is nice

Make sure you get there lightweight springs or your likely to snap the fiberglass hood with stock springs.

Not sure on the superbee stuff.

my super bee hood is really nice. the top side of the hood is primer but the underside has its original purple color. I do not own a bulge hood, just wanted to know the street value as im needing one for my 73 charger and do not want to use the supe bee hood, rather sell it to someone thats in need of it.

I bought a nice ramcharger buldge hood with the door for $450 for the wannabee about 4 years ago.  with the economy I am not sure if the parts have appreciated or depreciated.  I would guess it to be worth at least $500-600 and you could get more if someone is at that stage of their build and in need of the hood :Twocents:  I would be interested if i had a third gen that did not have a bulge hood.  I think they make the car :2thumbs:

one thing for sure... with the money you can get the Bee hood, will be able to get a bulged hood and still some extra cash
