Title: '72 Maverick Grabber Hood That Fits Pinto
Post by: eatmydust on November 21, 2004, 09:04:10 PM
I have this hood that I built, looks real nice.  Makes a wagon look like a dragon.  I'm curious, would it be worthwhile to make a fiberglass mold and to fabricate and sell??  Would anyone be interested?   ???

I am working on getting a picture to post.  I appreciate any comments!!

A 12sec 4cyl.... I'm betting on a turbo motor from a T-bird or Merkur... possibly an SVO 'Stang

Stang Cobra would be nice if you kept it pureblood (pureoil).  But, something about a mid-motor wagon going up Pikes Peak really interests me!

P.S.  I could put a dual turbo system on it and pump at least 1500 hp.  8)

Just make sure you're not in the car the first time you crank it.  Its gonna twist that thing up like aluminum foil!
