so since i've got to replace the hood anyway when i get the car home(it's not a matter of IF, but a matter of WHEN--i am determined), does anyone know about the quality of the reproduction 400 hoods and the additional open hood scoops? i've only bought one piece of repro sheet metal before, which was the rear window filler panel for my '72 formula, and if i use that panel on the finished product, it will need a lot of work to get it to look show quality. i'm sure being made in taiwan has something to do with it, so i'm understandably wary of any other reproduction sheetmetal, especially when the hood is a couple hundred dollars and is vastly more important than a filler panel.
