Original Superbird hood extension...

[Daytona R/T SE]

Sawed off of a Superbird hood sometime in the last 5+ decades...

What is it worth? 

Wall hanger?

Repair it and use it on an original car?

Target practice?

Scrap metal?

Now there's something you don't see often, if at all. 

I'd say it's definitely worth saving & selling if you aren't going to use it. Can't help with the value but it looks to be a very clean piece. People cut OEM panels off cars & drill spot welds all the time. Just a guess on the value would be to price both the fiberglass & metal repro extensions & double it. Maybe more if it's perfect.

Thanks.

It's not perfect, but it's real. 

The lower panel is a rusty mess, but the upper panel seems OK.

The (very) remote possibility of me ever building a Superbird clone went  out the window last week when I sold my '70 Coronet fenders and hood that I had been hanging onto "Just in case".

I would sell it, if I can determine a price, or trade it for something Daytona/Charger related that I could use.

If the bottom section is a rusty mess, what does the inside of the top section look like if it gets taken apart? Enclosed area with no primer. It could be fine, could be a rusty mess.

I don't know what Ricks Parts sells reproductions for any more. I guess that would be a guide up or down.

If you take it apart the bottom is an excellent template for cutting a Coronet hood.

I also question how many people are doing clones. To me that seems like a money losing proposition from the get-go. I am curious though. The greater fool theory and all. How many people jump in?

Rick retired and sold out to these guys: https://mopartsllc.com/shop

I'm not sure what the inside looks like.

I figure somebody can repair the hood extension and use it or paint it blue with a big old "43" on it and hang it on the wall.

I've received a few requests for close ups of the bottom side of the hood extension.

It ain't pretty.

I changed my mind, it's not a clean piece. 

But still worth saving & possibly using as a template.

Yep, it's kinda toasty
 
And...
It was used as a template many years ago by Gene Gregory when he had the tooling made for his reproduction hood extensions.

Will trade for something I can use.

Possibly reproduction Daytona Headlight doors, fender scoops, or steel Daytona wing washers.

Or...

What else have you got ?
