Default Aftermarket L88 Hoods for Sale

I have TWO ONE aftermarket fiberglass L88 Long hoods for sale. $150 each. They are land laid fiberglass with inner doubler around perimeter. One of them is much lighter than the other. One has some damage at the mounting point strut that could be repaired. If interested, I can add pictures. And, obviously, shipping would be ridiculously expensive and difficult, so i would prefer the buyer meets me near Pittsburgh PA.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I am NOT shipping these, because it would require a crate and frankly, its not worth it to me to spend hours building crates, etc for the $150 I am asking. If you want to meet me somewhere on the east side of Pittsburgh PA, I am willing to throw the hood in my truck and meet you.

ADDED PICTURES SEE BELOW

RED HOOD IS SOLD

They are the Long hood design, so you can use them on 69-72, by eliminating the wiper door; but, they do not flow well into the fender corners well....but anything can be fixed. They DO fit the 73-79, and possibly 80-82, because those years used the long hood. As for the latching points, you will have to figure it out. I am getting PM's for pictures and dimensions, so I will try to get that tomorrow, and add to this thread....

Added pictures and information

Red Hood - SOLD

Blue hood is lighter than red hood. Appears to be stock L88 rise. It has some damage at the upper hood support location, easily fixed. The rear portion of the hood is heavy woven fiberglass. Very useable hood with some minor repair work and cleanup. It was on the 69 when I bought it, and uses the hood pin style as you can see in the pictures.

Picture of blue hood on the car on the day I bought it. You can see it fits well round fenders and hood, and you can see how these long hoods do NOT flow well with 69-72 fenders.....they do not meet the lines of the rear fender trim at the top......but some people don't care....OR, people will cut off the tip of the fender and replace with 73 and later fender tips.

Screamin deal for some L88 hoods. Good luck Flyboy. I looked for almost a year for my L88 hood and paid over 4 times that.

Red Hood is SOLD

On further inspection of the blue hood I believe it started life as an aftermarket short L88 hood for 69-72, and someone grafted on the piece to make it a long hood.....so it could be left as is for later model, or the addition sawed off for an early model..
