Ok. So I have been gathering parts to rebuild my cobra for a year or so now. Funds have been limited so its been a long and freakin tiresome process that is driving me up a wall. Well I want it done this summer. I have a large enough paycheck coming to me due to my employer owing me mileage. So I will be buying a hood with part of the check, and depending on which hood, possibly a few other goodies.

As of now, my goal is a street/track car to be driven for Auto-X and maybe a weekend or 2 on an open track day(if I can find those funds lol). So I like things to be functional. But either or.

Options.

LRS and AM are pretty close in price and AM (not sure if LRS does) offers free shipping.

^Thank you for being the one person that seems to get my reasoning.. Plus that shit is rare as hell. But its functional as hell too!! Plus it doesnt look bad at all. What size hood is yours man?

I'd like to see a pic of the car it's going on. And what is a raised stocker?

Its the stock cobra hood with a 1 and 1/4'' cowl to it.

Here is the car said hood would go on.. It will not look exactly like this when its done.. Only half will be orange
