like the title....who makes the best repo.....I currently have the scoop on a steel hood...I want a repo full fiberglass hood


Mike

You are asking for a REPOSESSED hood?
Well, I guess a repo would be cheaper than a reproduction.

You are talking about the 70 T/A snorkel hood right and not the R/T twin scoop power bulge hood?

If you are then 71 T/A knows a guy who makes excellent T/A repops. He does great work. Around $800 + shipping IIRC.

thats going to be a hard part to find as there were "no" 73 T/As made....

I thought First place or someone made the reproduction for the later models....

If they don't make them then I will redo my existing hood......I just wanted everything premolded into the hood as one piece like original....

A 70 hood will fit 70-74.. There was no 73 T/A but a 70 T/A hood will fit your 73.... There are a few manufacturers...

I thought so.....but I have not looked into this for almost a few yrs and forgot if they matched up due to the 70-71 fenders being different......

SO whats the best repro hood? I found the hard way to buy quality first not later

I swear that I just read a post on here about who made the best fiberglass hoods and or panels.
Hmmm, now I cant find it.

A place called ASC&P makes the best quality T/A hood.
They are out of PA and advertise in Hemmings.

Is there a site or anything...All I can find is the Hemmings listing....any pics or anything?

My vote is for AAR. Very nice piece, just not real light. My paint and body guy was impressed...and he is a chevy guy. The difference between 70 and 73 is the front hood edge trim...the way they are attached. My hood requires the 70 trim piece.

I don't see the T/A on thier site.....I used to know everyone who made it two years ago.....I have just been driving the car and not worrying about the hood but I want the right piece now

Here's info I saved, no information on quality.

ASC&P international PO Box 255 Uwchland, PA 19480 (610) 458-8395

can't think of the name of the company that made this hood to save my life if interested I'll see if i can dig it up

Get ahold of 71T/A here at Moparts.
He has an ASC&P T/A hood on his Challenger and knows a fair amount about them.

I have an old glass T/A hood on my street/strip 1973 Challenger from Unlimited Fiberglass.
My hood fits very well but does not have the rear screens and squirters, and is not very well finished underneath. It is a bolt on and is light.
According to Unlimited's website they retooled their T/A hoods and the rear screen indentations are now on their new T/A hoods and the underside is better finished.

I bought my hood brand new at a swap meet for $150 many years ago and is perfect for what I want.

There is also another T/A hood advertised on E-bay often that has be getting very good reviews.

yea $150 would be relly sweet for me too! I buld to drive so I just want a one piece hood......I have learned in the past that you pay for what you get and I would like it to be a one time deal.......

That's it unlimited,must have been a old mold or something because it was not molded with the rear screen,but has the in print,and like the one u have it also was a bolt on.But heavy as he&^%

You can look here at some pics of mine after painting
