Brian at Berry Dodge ordered me one for $780. Now I'll just have to drive out there when it comes in... He said it could take up to 2 weeks since nobody has any in stock, but I should be at the top of the list since there are only 2 pending orders.

Keep us posted on how it works out for you. I would love to have that hood on my truck. I think it would look great next to my 70 Challenger, or pulling it on a trailer.

Will do. I'll take some pictures of the hood before it's put on and then obviously after it's on and painted.

It's definately solid plastic so there's not even airflow going into the engine area.

And how do you know this for certain? And really? This is your first post on the forum?

Anyways, even if it is solid plastic, the shop said they can easily cut the plastic out and we can even put some mesh or whatever in to match it to the grille.

I've had the hood for several months now.

Yes, this is my first post on this site, but I'm not new to this. I'm only trying to help by providing you with information your asking for. (as I do on two other sites.)

Sobo: Did you order the hood? Placing my order right now. Plastic should be cake to replace with MESH.
