    I Don't wanna ship the whole hood, should I cut the lip off with a saw and sell it? Or is it worth nothing at that point? Keep it up on a shelf and forget I have it? 20150210_152200.jpg

    Time 3 I have had one for three years and offered it for free to a member of this forum that was in need and fairly local and he wouldnt even take it. I will hang on to is because someday it will find a home even if I have to cut it up and use it for patch panels.

    But you know Matt it wouldve made a good sled during some of that snow you had

    Matt, I may be intrested in the hood emblem if its in pretty good shape. That is if you would want to sell it.

    Thanks, Chuck
