I may be buying the hood off a 76 and was wondering if someone could tell me the rough dimensions of one and about how much one would weigh. I am 2600 miles from home and if it turns out to be in as good of shape as he says its in it would be a great deal...the only thing is i would have to pack and ship it or try and pack it into a box and put it on the plane......
