Unlimited Products are lighter race weight stuff. AAR is stiffer more OEM replacement stuff. It depends on what you are looking for. :cheers:

My friend bought one of these from AAR, that Tactransman mentioned;

"Cuda Shaker Hood with Bubble Attached 1970-74 (lift off)
[1102LOH] $559.00 
Cuda lift off fiberglass Shaker hood with Bubble attached looks like the real thing but its a one piece hood."


I looked at it on his car and it was very nice. Looks like a real shaker without the cost of one.

Thanks for all the info guys I have an original ralleye hood that was in a rollover i tried to straighten it the best I could but it still tweaked. I guess as soon as i get 5 6 hundred I'll order one.

I don't know where you are but in Massachusetts...

Very Rare 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A hood repairable - $275

I thought about it but no $$$$ and want to sorta keep it more stock looking with the Rallye hood, but still thinking about it.  :dunno:
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.
