I had oe on my 69 runner. It fit nice, was smooth, didn't take much prep work, etc... however it was lightweight and a little flimsy. I sold the car, but had I kept it, I would have braced the hood. I got it back when they were 179 and to me that was a deal. For the price they are decent, but like I said flimsy.

In the early 90s I wanted to return ther junk but the refund would have been for credit I must re use with them. Dont know if thats still the policy.

Dont buy from them. If you can live with a lift off hood they are much much less $$$ than a bolt on. When I bought my lift off hood from AAR in 1999 it was 1/2 the price of their bolt on. AAR is the only place Ive dealt with and their hood was fantastic.

You want a down and dirty cheap lightweight hood that poses as a factory hood? Thats what its good for. Cheap, looks good from 25 ft away. A friend bought one for his 69 GTX race car And it fits the bill perfect. If you want something that looks like it was made of metal and fits really well, go with AAR. US body source has poor quality, i have bought some scoops from Unlimited, but those needed work to to make them decent too, but the thickness of the material was nice. Just me personal experiences.

I got one on my 69 Satellite bracket car 2 years ago. Its not the best fitting hood. Also the packing liner scratched it badly....however for the price & the real lite weight. I cant say I'm unhappy with it.
