aar hood id
« on: August 14, 2015 - 10:56:49 AM »
My body shop guys think my aar style hood may be an original. Seems to be an older fiberglass composition. Is there a way to tell?
It's being prepared for my '70.440 Barracuda.

Crappy finish on engine side, no reinforcement in hinge area and always bowed in hinge area, and I don't see the factory squirters.
Also the mess screen is metal, most aftermarket use plastic

Squirters holes filled in. It has been repaired in hinge and "bow" areas.
