Hoods for Offroading.
«

Back in the day someone out there was making low profile hoods for off road applications.
Slanted downwards in the front to a taper. Gave more front end visibility.
I have only been able to find a few old pics on line and have found no luck in finding a seller.
Anyone here know where I might be able to find one with out having to just have it custom made?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link,
Yes, not the prettiest hood in town. That's for sure.
dang..600 and fiberglass to boot. yeah, would agree not worth it.
Wrecking yards here snatch these trucks and parts up fast.
Pretty much stripped far before hitting the public. If they hit at all.
