It doesnt cost a 1000.00 dollars to put a hood on one of those cars. You can by a brand new replacement for GM for under 300.00. Maybe this will go away, or people will have extra hoods for that new 300 Hp 350 or a big block project.

Your incorrect
The hood after market is 349.00 for a decent one
Shipping was 250.00
And what do you thinks its going to cost to custom match a custom paint job?
300-400?

Ok Mark, your right. Most likely with those prices you are close to a 1000.

I guess I got lucky. My cars were in Cali for the winter, and although both of the cowl hoods had already been painted PEAK blue, it wasn't that big of a deal to get another one. Bernie C found several of them on the local Cali Craigslist for around $100. Rochester, NY Craigslist, not so much, lol.

I also had a flat one at home, but it wasn't worth the shipping cost. It was far better to trade it to a local SS/JA friend for a good 4 bolt block that's now in the wagon, lol.
