Looking for preferably original or one of the concourse reproduction hoods for 1967 Shelby, all fiberglass for the later Shelby's. I have GT350 number 2229 and the hood is pretty rough, thanks in advance!!

if you are located in Europe I would have one for you, original. There is no 100% concours hood just the originals will be correct.

I know what you meant but for others clarification there is no reproduction 100% concours hood n the market. You can make a good repro look like it should but it requires the knowledge and extensive time and effort.

exactly buying an original one is easier if you don't had several cars and original hoods in your hands.

I have an extra original. Louvered AC style easy to deal with compared to repop

Thanks everyone, non AC car so no louvers, still looking :)  I thought at what point there was a reproduction that was hand made, identical to original. and passed as concours.  I must have been mistaken, not in Europe :)
