I have a chance to pickup a 3 in cowl hood for my car.

I don't have truck so I might try and fit it in the hatch of my car.

I measured my hood vs. the trunk...looks close if I turn the hood.


Think it will fit. Anyone tried this. Or is this just a bad idea and am I asking for trouble

it should. i would bring some straps just in case you cant close the hatch all the way.

It will be close. Won't know until you try. Do you have far to go?

15 miles tops.

Forgot to mention that I don't have my rear seats in there. That should help a bit.

It won't hurt the hood not sitting flat?

Fiberglass? I dont think 15 miles will do any harm. The most harm you might do is damaging the hood getting it in there, just be careful so it doesnt chip. Too bad you couldn't get a truck for an hour....

if you have a home depot near you they have those rental f150s for like $20 an hour + gas. i would recomend that instead of squezing it into the mustang.

really?! I didn't know home depot did that. Too bad the closet one is an hour away.

yeah, my local one has one. im pretty sure they all have them now. its more of a dumptruck than a pickup.
