Vanacors.

Long and short L88 hoods. They are 2.25" higher than stock, $425 + freight. I paid $90 for freight.

I'm happy, but with all after market hoods you will have to do some body work to get them to fit great.

I have an Ecklers awaiting installation for my '76 and it has the inner supports ready to go with the stock latch setup. They are around $600 from Ecklers, but I think the quality is pretty good.
