I've gathered info from here and there on this subject, but still confused. I would like a TA hood for my 69 project. Are the hoods out there (steel) usable for a novice body man doing everything himself with more time than money available? What types of mods need to be done to get them to work. My current project has all original sheet metal up front and came with a repro 400 hood. I would like to put the 400 hood on my 67 and get a Ta hood for the 69. Anybody gone through this already?

a real TA hood is steel and is valued at $15,000. repo hoods are fiberglass.

(As far as I know.) these are available but EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE!! might consider waiting for now on this one unless money is no object. the fiberglass ones are your choice if like most of use money is tight!! also might consider the carbon fiber unit currently being sold/marketed in the for sale forum of this site!!

due to budget cutbacks, the light at the end of the tunnel has been disconnected for non payment.
