Superbird Hood Question...

[Lighthorseman]

Just wondering - is $500.00 USD a reasonable price to pay for a steel Superbird hood?  I'm assuming that it would be, especially if it's in nice condition.

Then, of course, there's the likely $500.00 to get it shipped to where I live...  I ask because it looks like I might be close to the same cost once a fibreglass hood arrived at my door, so maybe I should suck it up and go for the steel?

I'd appreciate any input and ideas...

Thanks!

I think 500 for a real Superbird hood is a good deal to me. As long as its not folded in half.

5000.00 for a real superbird hood in good shape is a great deal  let alone a little 500.00

I got a few really clean 70 coronet flat hoods stashed away.Can you buy just the hood extension in metal.

yes you can from wingcarfab.com    jack mccaughey     makes them out of steel  two pieces , and I know  a tricky way to install them without taking apart the whole hood and destroying the spotwelds on the side of the hood.     I supose you could drill out the side spotwelds and then respotweld right next to the originals.  a friend posted somewhere on here  of me building one with a fiberglass piece.  But the same method could be done with the steel piece too.

Well, I told the guy I'd take it.  I thought it was a good deal, and you guys cinched it.  I'll post pictures soon.

Thanks!
