Hey folks,

I'm Rick and I'm a bit of a Mopar Nut

Got a '69 RR with a 440

Far from stock, but I'm at least trying to get her to look stock.

Welcome Rick!

I really like the extensions you have that elevate your hood (for viewing of the engine compartment). Where did you purchase them? I'd like to score a similar setup!

Thanks.

There's nothing on the shelves that will fit on top of a high rise with a dominator and still fit under a liftoff hood, so I just made a template and lasered it out of aluminum.

I made short and long sets out of leftover steel tubes in my shop

Welded up some hood pin ends, painted them, then added rubber bushings and covered them in glue lined heat shrink, so they're soft enough to set down on the paint

Nice job! They look great :encouragement:

How much does a set cost plus shipping to N. California?:drive::semi-twins:

I haven't really thought about producing them as I just used leftover scrap in my shop

Besides, I'e been way too busy cranking out Road Runner promo wheel discs lately
