71-72 fiberglass hoods

Post by dangina » Sat Feb 12, 2011 11:35 pm

Hey guys - Looking at buying a satellite fiberglass hood - i was hoping you guys can point me in the right direction - who has bought one and how was the fitment? Looking for the best fitment possible with the least amount of work done to it - I'm hoping some of you guys have done this. Also whats the stock weight of a satellite hood? thanks guys

I've heard alot of bad things of them on moparts on how terrible their fitment and finish was - what was your experience with them?
