Does anybody offer these? Looking for a replacement hood for my car. They are offered as a Power Bulge hood like the old 340's. I really don't understand why the price is 5 times higher for a aluminum hood for a Mopar than a Chevy.

Did you just awake from a 35 year nap?

For every 1 mopar hood they'll sell 75 chevy hoods.

Who makes an alum. version of the power bulge hood ?

I'm interested too but I read the description in the link provided and everything I see says "steel". Am I missing something? Nice Dart btw!

This listing is for a GTS Hood, part# 300-2067, which is designed to fit the 1967-1969 Dodge Dart. Auto Metal Direct (AMD) hoods are designed to be a direct bolt-on replacement to your vehicles stock hood. All applications utilize your vehicles stock hinge and latch assemblies. Each hood features a fully finished, factory style, underside. Unlike fiberglass hoods, AMD steel hoods will not flex or warp over time. Regardless of where you are located, AMD steel hoods will stay looking great for years to come! This hood arrives in a black EDP coat finish. This is not a primer. This is a sealer put on the hood to protect against rust. All AMD hoods require normal prep work (test fit, sand, prime) before paint can be applied. We strongly recommend having a qualified auto body shop paint and install this hood.

My bad. You are correct. I guess that I will be going back to a fiberglass lift off hood. Thanks for the replies.
