426 Race Hemi cars with 2 carbs were available from factory with either steel or aluminum components (fenders, hood & scoop) depending on plant supply at the time motor installed in car.

426 Wedge Al component car required to have aluminum hood with hood scoop, & both aluminum front fenders to be classified as aluminum component car

This is from the bottom of the 1964 Plymouth classification spreadsheet. I'd be happy to be able to run a fiberglass hood and scoop and keep my steel fenders. Sure would save a ton of money. I haven't seen an aluminum front clip for sale in over 10 years.
