I can make yours a one piece. I have a welder and know how to use it. Where in AZ are you?

I know where that is. I bought a poly motor from a mopar guy down there years ago. I'm guessing your hood is 2 piece and hinged in the middle?

I dont think there is much of an aftermarket for 30's dodges. If you do weld it up take your time so you dont warp it. I'm sure finding another could prove quite difficult. Good luck.

Jason, Rootlieb should have them. check them out at www.Rootlieb.com and on the far right middle of their home page should be the 35/36 Mopar hoods. It's worth a phone call to them for a better description of what they offer. Bob

The hood (if complete and original) should be a 4-piece not a 2-piece. Your explanation of a 2-piece must be referring to the 2 top halves only (without the louvered sides).

You could always just roll the edges of a piece of sheetmetal and make your own. That way, your not screwing up a part someone else might want or need. You already have a pattern to work from. Gene

It's not perfect.
It's not correct.
It's not yours!
