  Only fiberglass hoods that I'm aware of today are the two from Crites. Choice of either a flat stock hood or what looks like an R-code 66 Fairlane style scooped hood.

    Jeff; are you looking for clearance or a tear drop to graft to your metal hood? If it interests you at all and you want a one of look, I have a 69 Cyclone scoop that I almost used on my car. It will fit nice and bolt on. If you want a bubble only, Crites has them.  Cheers   Gary    See you soon!
