Isn't North country fiberglass somewhat near you?
Also,I believe the hawks one can be made functional can't it?
I don't know for sure,just guessing there.

Rva, I got my hood from Fiberconcepts. Very good fit and quality. I highly recommend. Here is a pic installed. The part that's primed is where I extended it closer to the windshield. The raised up part is normally straight across like a factory hood would be. It is open front and rear. Dean. www.fiberpartsconcepts.com or 1-800-672-1283.

Re: help, where to get a ss hood?

Have you considered driving to Young's F-body in Charlotte and picking the hood up? It should be about 300 miles from you, so maybe you could make a weekend trip out of it and catch a race at Lowe's or something? It looks like there is an NHRA event Sept. 11-14, if you are not into the oval track racing. Granted, I am a lot closer to Young's, but I have driven there before and picked parts up with good results.
