roadrunner hood

Post by hmiller79 » Fri Aug 31, 2007 11:01 pm

Hello,
Do any of you guys know where I could find a standard 71-72 roadrunner hood in good shape? My hood is pretty rough and I can't seem to find one for my restoration. Well I did find one and lost $600, but that's another story. Any info would be great. Thanks.

post a wanted ad on moparts.com......I got one that way a couple of years ago....in great shape, use forward air to ship, reasonable as long as there is a major airport fairly close to you. Mine cost 100 for shipping which included crating it up.

Thanks for the kind words you guys. I tried to make this car a sleeper 400 as you all know they only had 175 HP at that time with the emissions thing so even the engine "looks" stock but is actually 500 CI stroked / bored Edlebrock heads etc etc etc...... Its also a factory air and 4 speed. Bench seats :lol:

That's a nice looking car. Welcome to the nest. These cars never looked like sleepers to me. Even the SSP's look fast.
