I just happened to have a digital scale that I use for shipping UPS everyday, and a few hoods off of cars at the moment. Here's what I got...
1970 Challenger Flat hood (early build without crumple zones) totally stripped without any emblems, trim, etc., weighed 69 pounds.
1970 'Cuda J54 hood including latch bar, hood pin bezels, engine callout emblems, and both complete scoop inserts, also weighed 69 pounds.
ASC&P reproduction T/A hood totally stripped without any trim, squirters, etc., weighed 46 pounds.
The reproduction T/A hood is supposed to have some extra reinforcing, but should still be fairly representative of approximately what a T/A hood Weighs.
I was pretty surprised to see the two steel hoods weighed the same, even though they used different springs. I guess the scoops on the 'cuda hood made up for the weight of the extra front overhang on a challenger hood.
