If the hood looks like that, what else was changed. Tuck and roll seats or similar?

Thinking about getting the four guys from KISS painted on my hood, and a big logo on the back deck.

Not a bad high rise hood...I bet it will go cheaper than one of that style new. As we all know a little paint goes a long way.

I was serious! 50 bucks for a hood is peanuts, if I was in Fla I'd buy it. If you ever need more clearance (supercharger etc) you could use that instead of cutting up your original. You could get rid of the "scoop" if you don't like it and bond in something else (L88, shaker, whatever).

Hey for $50, that's a good deal for a high rise hood! Just repaint it whatever and you're set.
