Who's interested in a Jongbloed cowl induction hood?

This is still in the early stages, but we might be able to get Jongbloed style hoods made. If we can get at least 5 firm orders with deposits I'm going to let my hood be used to form a mold that can be used to make fiberglass or carbon fiber copies. I'll only make my hood available for this up to the point that I can afford to get it painted, which at this rate will be in at least a few months, so there's some time left. I don't have anymore details at this point, but if you're interested please reply here so we know whether or not to take this further.

I'm the one that contacted Andy about trying to get a mold of the Jongbloed cowl hood. Like Andy said, we are in the early stages of getting this project done, but the one's that will manufacture the hood want at least five confirmed orders to get this started. I want to see if a group discount can be made. I know the response in getting the hood made in past posts were very good, so i'm hoping the response will be just as good now that actually getting the hood reproduced has very good chances of actually getting done. As soon as I get more information on when the molding process can take place, how the pre-orders will be handled, shipment, etc, etc, I will pass that information on to the rest of you.
I just want to thank Andy for being so cooperative and his enthusiastic involvement in trying to get this hood reproduced. Thanks again Andy.

Shoot us a price and more details. I just bought a new IROC, and since I can't get another hood like on my blue baby unless I make it myself, I might definately be interested. But it would depend on price, how it mounts (I'm only interested in ones that use the stock mounting provisions), the quality and weight (I want sturdy, not flimsy), when it would be made, and where it would ship from.

Since I'm getting into this project so that I can have a productive of the hood myself, the quality and functionality of the hood will be important to me as well.
What I'm looking to do is to make an exact production of the hood. The original hood is a very high quality piece and utilizes the stock latch and hinges. I would expect the reproduction to be the same. Me and the guys that will do the mold will still have to meet with Andy. As soon as all those arrangements take place, I will be able to provide more information. But like I said, I expect a high quality hood that will function as a stock replacement hood, not something that will have to be pinned down.
As far as pricing, for the hood to really fly, it will have to be competitive with other fiberglass hoods on the market. Information on pricing, availability and shipping will be determined. I will try to have an answer for all that as soon as possible. If production will take place, it will be in the Southern California area.

It looks like a nice hood, I can't see it all to well in the pic (could you get another one with better lighting?), but it sure looks nice. I would reaaly be interested in one. Just tell me a price, what the down payment would be, and when they would be produced. Thanks. THEISENATOR@aol.com

I'm not sure if I'm interested. The pic isn't very good but if I saw a better pic maybe I would be.

Here's another pic:

Note: I didn't do the best job cutting the hood out of the original pic. The back edge of the hood has a smoother curve from the side to the top of the cowl than this pic would indicate.

I know that all that is interested in the hood want a price. Worst case scenario cost would be in the $500-$600 range. That is worst case. Considering the Hardwood 4” high cowl hood has a narrower cowl that the Jongbloed and costs around $450, so we’re trying to target a price range close to that. My contact with the guys that are doing the hood will try to get a firm price by next week. Since this is a custom deal, the hoods will take a few weeks to make after the initial mold is made. Basically, to make the mold would cost $3000. We would need to have 5-6 hoods made to cover the cost of the mold. More orders than that should affect the price. Like I said, I’ll find out more next week.
If you want to know who will be making the hood and want to know the legitimacy of the company. It is R2AutoDesigns and they can be found at www.r2autodesign.com . They make very high quality kits for import show cars and have been featured in many of the import show magazines and they have agreed to step in to do this project. They usually make fully functioning hoods, meaning that the stock hinges will be used and the stock latch will be retained and the hood will be fully reinforced. I’ve seen some of the fiberglass hoods they’ve made for the imports and they are very sturdy and do not warp under heat like some of the cheaper cowl hoods I’ve seen out there.
My contact will be notifying them that they might be getting calls about this project. If you call, say today, and someone there doesn’t have a clue as to what you are talking about, my contact may not have gotten to them yet or the entire staff may not have been told yet. If you are in the Los Angeles, CA area, feel free to drop by their shop if you want to see the quality of their work.
Honestly, this is one of the best hoods I have ever seen on a Third Gen. The only one's with the hoods i've seen was a Third Gen in an old Car Craft article in the late 80's and when I saw a picture of Andy's car. Andy himself knows of only 4 and that's including himself. It's a very rare hood that no one produces right now. As soon as I get more information, I’ll pass it on to all that are interested. E-mail me if you have any more questions.

Very Interested, and as everyone else has already stated in one form or another the overall fit and finish would be the determining factor, though price and a ballpark figure of the overall price shipped would greatly aid all our decisions about buying this hood. I've been eyeballing hoods for quite some time and this is my favorite design to date. I'll be watching and listening.

Sweet looking hood, would have to change my name as she wouldn't be a sleeper with that hood, but it is a small price to pay.. Count me in on one for sure, please get in contact as to what you need for deposit etc... try ctrolitsch@yahoo.com. Much thanks...

is Jongbloed an actual style hood scoop, or is it something custom that you made? how high is the cowl? i like the width of it, but i don't really like how the sides curve. i think it would look bada$$ to have the cowl be 4" and the sides go straight up instead of being curved.

My EXACT thought!!
I did this quick photoshop'ing of my 'vert a good while back of how I'd love to have a hood. I would prefer it without the inserts though!

After the mold is made and payed for, will they continue to produce these hoods or is this a limited production thing? I really want one, but don't have the $ at the moment.
I love the curved sides!!!!!!! I hate that sharp 90 degree angle on most cowl hoods, it just doesn't go with the body lines of the car. I do agree it could be a little taller, but I'm not complaining. I could always have it raised a couple inches by a custom shop later.

I am very interested.

Different strokes for different folks I guess,the whole reason I want the hood is it has the curved sides.It is basicly a stock looking hood with a raised center section.The only thing I don't like about it but can live with is the large creese(SP) that runs through the center.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">is Jongbloed an actual style hood scoop, or is it something custom that you made?</font>
Jongbloed is the name of the company that made the hood in the mid-late 80's. They also made a series of road racing wheels. They have been out of business for at least a few years, so making a new mold is the only way to duplicate it.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">After the mold is made and payed for, will they continue to produce these hoods or is this a limited production thing?</font>
They will continue to be available once the mold is made. The mold will be made as soon as there are a minimum of 5 people committed enough to getting one that they send in deposits to the company that'll be doing the work. FAST LiFE is the one in contact with the company, so he'll be the one to let you know who to call about sending in deposits.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">so, is there a mold being made? or is this just talk? is there an update? im sure you wouldnt have a problem selling 5 eventually or immeadiatly</font>
I agree they would sell, but it's not my call. They won't do it without 5 deposits in their hands unless I'm willing to cough up a couple of thousand dollars to have them make the mold. (Sorry, but I'm already giving up having a virtualy one of a kind hood to do this, I can't see spending my money to do it.)

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">The only thing I don't like about it but can live with is the large creese(SP) that runs through the center.</font>
That's the only thing I don't like about it too. If we get a consensus on that we could bring that up when the mold is made, perhaps they could eliminate it.

just thought i would say so, i like the curved sides, i think that 90deg corners dont really belong on an aerodynamic car such as ours.

as for the guys that want one with the 90deg sides, get out some nibblers, cut your lines on your stock hood, get some sheet metal a mig and some bondo, and it could be done in a day + plus paint. curves however, would take lots of glass and experience.

I want to apologize for leaving you guys hanging. It’s kind of hard when I live up in Northern Cali and Andy and the place that will do the mold is in Southern Cali. I just got home from a business trip so that complicates things more. I’ll be getting in touch with my contact at R2AutoDesign tomorrow about what the exact costs will be and when this can get started. As soon as I get in touch with my contact, he’ll basically get together with Andy and take it from there, since he too is based in Southern Cali.
As far as deviations from the original design of the hood, I really can’t say what can and cannot be done. That’s something that has to be taken up with R2AutoDesigns.
I’m going through all this just to get a copy of the hood made for myself. I don’t get a chance to frequent the boards, but if you have specific questions you want answered right away, feel free to e-mail me.
I really want this project to move forward since I myself don’t have three thousand dollars to spend for a mold, but it does take time since some coordination with different parties are involved and because R2AutoDesign is involved in other projects also. For all that’s interesting in making this project work, thanks for your patience.

The crease down the middle blends into the crease on the nose.I think it makes the hood look like it belongs with the car, not just some cheap add on.I think it should be reproduced as is.Its beautiful just the way it is.It probably makes the hood stronger also.I'm intrested in a reproduction of the original as is, but need to know specific $ and also ball park shipping cost to Iowa.

I believe the reason we are all interested in this hood, is precisely because it is this hood. If we were to beg and plead to change it too a "Four Inch, abrupt edged, non-creased" hood, then we'd essentially get the same hood as Harwood and Unlimited and other such companies sell. The purpose is to get this hood as is, that's why I'm interesed and have been following it ever since I first saw the hood months back. Just my 2cents...Take care all

Once the mold is made you'll have two choices. Either fiberglass, or if you have the cash, you can get it in carbon fiber.

<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">The crease down the middle blends into the crease on the nose.</font>
It's "peakier" than the crease on the stock hoods actually. In any case it'll most likely be an exact clone. It definitely won't be changed in it's basic shape, it'll have the curved sides.

you guys can always sand down the crease a bit if you freak bout it, or take it off i bet the glass will be thick enough.

lets us know.

I doubt that anyone would trade you that hood for your left nut.

Actually, I'd like dibs on BOTH the nuts.. and whatever might be above them....

Howdy folks, has anyone heard anything more about this hood/project lately? Anyone called to see what's up? I've been working 13 hour and up days lately so I haven't had time to even check what's been said on here for a while. And, like everyone else, any info would be much appreciated in this matter. Later all...

I have no idea what's going on with it. I haven't heard from FASTLiFE in quite a while. (He's the one organizing this deal) A few guys have mentioned that you e-mailed him and haven't heard back, so I really have no idea what's up.

Just some info, I emailed the place that's supposed to be making the hood about a week ago, and there is still no response.

I don't think this deal is going through.

we just need to get enuf people to keep botherin them till it does go through. They prolly dont wanna go through with it because they dont think they will sell, but if we show that there is alot of interest maybe it will persuade them to through with it
