Cowl hood, where to find this one?


I really want this hood. It kinda slants out to the sides, not straight up and down like some that I've seen. Anyone know where I could find one like it? Thanks.

I don't know thats hard to tell. Looks like there is a good 2.5 to 3 inches more between the hood line and the cowl in front than at the rear. Leads me to believe the rear is wider, but the top looks the same width front to back. It does look like the Cervini's, but you can clearly tell the Cervini's top gets wider at the back.

Just noticed that the Cervini's is going for $235 for the lift-off hood. How much of a pain would a lift-off hood be? Are they heavy and akward lifting off to where it'd need 2 people? I've lifted carbon fiber hoods that was next to no effort to lift off a car. I'm wanting to save weight so any hardware I could save, the better....and I've save over half of what a bolt-on would cost. Any feedback? I've been thinkin of lift-off but not sure as to how much of a pain it'd be. Thanks.

What city do you live in? I have that same hood on the 87 I just bought and don't realy like it that much so I'm selling it. It's really light and very easy to lift off.

Lift offs are not heavy, but good luck if its windy or you are broke on the side of the road. They are for track cars only if you ask me. I was wondering how much view you lose with a 4" hood? I know you loose 4"'s duh, but how hard is it to see around and is it annoying? Anybody got one? I like that hood myself, and thinking about getting it.
