Check the junkyards for Formys and older TAs, you might get lucky.

Also keep your nose in the classifieds.

I agree with ya, best hood ever put on a 3rd gen.

A couple of the sponsors(above) have used ones on their sites. But be careful and be specific. Some of the sponsors have gotten mixed reviews for service.

they might have one and since they are in NC also u wouldnt have to worry about shipping most likely.

yeah if ur close to look in and take a good look before u buy.

a used one shouldnt be more than 200 bucks i would think.

I have been looking everywhere for that hood in fiberglass to replace the steal one on 84. I want the same hood in a fiberglass version.

There was an aluminum one from the factory?

I was thinking of asking the fiberglass guy who's doing the cowl on my wifes Mustang if it would be possible to lift a mold off my existing hood and make a fiberglass copy, but I am not sure how good it would come out.
