Pale Roader when does the build on your Challenger start?

I had spoke with a guy that makes T/A and AAR hoods show quality and eliminating the factory faults, bowing and the track marks showing through. These hoods weigh just under 50#....you can get race weighr hoods around 25# fron VFN at half the cost of the show hoods.



I had a brand new T/A hood, from a guy up here that does nice work (T&N Fiberglass). It weighed 24-25lbs. I didn't get to scale it, but thats what he said, and it was light. That was a really solid, bolt-on hood too... every detail like the factory. I had to sell it last year but i'll get another.

I dont know exactly what the stock flat hoods weigh, but i've heard around 80lbs from many sources. I know they're bloody heavy, and i'm a pretty strong guy...

The build starts as soon as i get this other car stuff sorted (just bought a new daily driver, still fixing issues). And ov course now that i've abandoned big block plans, i'm looking for another engine and all the details again.
