Since we don't have pictures of it, it's hard to say. Is it warped or any cracks?

It's great if you want an original TA hood, but just remember they were contract built without the benefit of a car, so the fitman is a little off.  A good reproduction TA hood delivered to your door will run $700 to $900.  Don't really know what the real thing is going for these days.  If I had a real TA, I would bite the bullet and pay the going rate for a real hood, but having a clone TA, I would go with the reproduction hood and call it a good night!

:iagree:
Also check on the repop quality, there is more than one company doing them. We have a customer suppied hood here and I can tell you it is BAD, wavy and low quality gel coat finish.
I have seen some very good ones also.

I got my TA hood thru year one and it still had some bad grider scratches in it but other then that they quality was pretty good, wasnt wavy at all and the fit was perfect. Ive heard AAR fiberglass also has a pretty good quality hood for about 700, year one will run you 1k after shipping
