Basketcase, (is your name Dave??) I got the hood at a Mopar Show in Melbourne, Florida from AAR Fiberglass. They are $600 on their website, but I called them to see if they would be at the show and they brought one for me and gave me a show price of $500. It will be a pin-on/lift off hood when she's done. Still trying to figure out what those poles are that other guys use to hold the hood above the engine compartment?? That looks pretty cool.

Hope you are well. Best, John..

 

[John69RR]

Those "poles" to hold the hood up are prop rods. I got mine a long time ago from a guy on Moparts. Here is a link from the LOH site. http://a12mopar.com/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1214744791
Mine use fender washers not the thick spacers. Maybe Ray or Mac knows who makes them.

 

[JJRJR]

Ah, thanks. I'd love to get my hands on a set.
