Jim Cowles made me one about 20 years ago. It certainly was the best steel framed hood I'd ever seen at the time, and IIRC the details, it's far better than what is currently available today.

If you go with Branda, or any freight shipment, try to find a local business you can use for the delivery. I was fortunate that when I bought my hood my car was getting painted and I could have the hood delivered to the paint shop because otherwise residential freight delivery costs more. At least, this was my experience.

Here is the high quality vacuum formed hood. It is a full steel frame.

   Jim's hoods are as close to the real deal as possible.
