Where can I find a 1968 metal cowl hood?

mustang169 · 11-21-2006

I was wondering if anyone knew where to metal hoods. I am looking for a cowl style hood for a 1968 mustang. I have been looking around and cant find one.. If anyone has any info on where to go, I would appreciate it. I have used fiberglass before, but it gets flexible. I need something hard.
Please help.

Thanks

Sadly, there is no such animal, or I would have owned one long ago.

BUT, in 1966 Shelby made like 10 all steel hoods with scoops. I've only seen one and that was on a Shelby personnel car that had lots of things messed with at the factory.

well I need to get more clearance for my engines air filter.. so what do you guys recommend? Are they any fiberglass hoods that are solid contruction? I owned a UP22.com hood and wow.. it SUCKED.. cheap construction. I dont mind fiberglass if It wont warp or flex. Any one know of anything out there? someone who has owned one for a while?
