Glass hood or sacrifice clean original?

[SJKrawler]

Do I cut a hole in my rust free hood, or should I make a mold from it to make a fiberglass one?
Need a scoop to clear the turbo.

Ive got one with a massive dent in it want to trade? Dent is on wrong side for turbo though. :D

Depending on the price of the fiberglass hoods you may be able to sell a few on the board. I Know for a fact that depot needs one or twelve throughout a season. Maybe if he buys them in bulk it will help keep the cost down for us!!!!!:boot:
On a serious note i would go fiberglass if you have the knowledge and resources to do so and use the money you get for selling your old one to pay for the materials.:beer:

Fibreglass breaks or cracks, steel just dents.

....and rusts.
hmmm, still thinking. I do have the resin and glass laying around. I put a little more thought into the glass hood today, seems like a little too much work.
Just though of something though, I'll swap hoods with the other truck. Has a little bit of rust, so I won't feel so bad cutting it.
Thanks

Just made it today. I swaped hoods with my other zuke, and started cutting and welding.
It turned out well. A few more finishing touches left to do.:D
