I wonder if there will be any takers here? Jim's doesn't have the best reputation here. The price might look good, but then they gouge you on shipping, but you don't know that until you see the receipt.  :stomp:

One of AMD's major distributors sends a fax out to all of thier dealers the same day a new product is IN STOCK and available for immediate sale (and shipment), to date no fax concerning Shaker Hoods has been sent.

I suspect the e-mail sent out by that vendor is simply that dealers attempt at "jumping the gun" a bit attempting to sell what they don't yet have in an effort to get early sales dollars heading thier way rather than to some other dealer when they are ACTUALLY available.

Based on the many stories I have heard about them in the past this is not an uncommon practice of thiers, buyer beware!

Yep, saw a couple from them posted on ebay for 999.00. Has anyone put one a car yet to check fit and final body work needed yet? Any GOOD pictures of the undersides anywhere showing the finer details as compared to originals? I've seen allot of pics of the tops, but no good ones of the undersides.

well, they are based off the 70 with out crumple zone. the top side and the structure does look pretty good. I'll try to post the inside picture that i have. Now the challenger will have the crumple zones.
