    Auto Krafters makes a fiberglass repro cowl hood. I'm sure they'd send it to Mexico. Hell they send stuff to Texas. They send me some real nice books with nice parts and REAL nice prices(not really...they are kind of expensive) But they have just about everthing from knobs to quarter panels.
    Here it is....Grabber Hood PN# CR2068. List $370.00 plus freight. You got to drill the holes for the hinges yourself. Check 'em out @ www.autokrafters.com or you can call 1-800-228-7346
    Best part about them is that they have a used part department.

    I think the other guy was reffering to the "cowl induction" hood... The one that can me seen on Maverick Man's website... He makes a carbon fiber cowl induction hood

    Show Cars has a very bad reputation on here and the one on Ray's car was not made by them. They simply stole the picture.

    Two 1973 LDO Mavericks (one 4 Drag one 4 driving like Mad on the roads :) ) also have a 75 6cyl Stock! Ok, well sort of Stock :P
    you get what you pay for!...

    why do you think they show other people cars with other people stuff on it and never show what their stuff looks like?

    RIGHT! cuz it don't fit! finish is horrible i mean given that fiberglass don't fit perfect but man i seen the stuff out there... if you wanna buy it and find out yourself i say go for it :p but if they do show it to you, it's a finished peice already painted and fixed.. make sence?

    i don't think i have to tell you how many time i've seen my car on ebay saying that they have my CF hood... the funny thing is they don't have it. even then if they are getting from the company they say they are... that company don't even have the hood... why cuz i'm the only one who has them unless i sell it to them. get it?! they are just fishing the waters to see if someone will bid on it or buy it and then they will try to figure out how to get after you have paid them... the key word to ask let me see a photo of it!

    never belive anything to see on the web! get people opintions that have actually bought the stuff. 95% of the time on these types of items.. they suck! i recall every person that has bought my stuff can tell you its is quality B+ at the worst! yeah it aint cheap but it will be after you see what you get from someone else. ;)
