Hi Tim, Which is best? How does the aluminum version look and paint up? I will keep trying Mr. Wilcox, but do you have Rob Martel's contact info? Would you be interested in building more than one ram

You should definitely speak with people who purchased and installed these replacement hoods. In letters a few years back some members mentioned that there was normally a problem with "fit-up" of the

I have an aluminium LAT replica hood by Steve Alcala. It's a gourgous peice with perfect fit and should be more durable in the long run than glass so long as I avoid hail storms. Painting is not unl

I've heard that Mr. Wilcox is making his 3rd generation (or mold) of hood, so that fitment is not issue. Rodney

Hi Rodney, I don't have his contact information, and a quick Web search isn't helping too much... maybe someone else can help you. I just saw Stephen Waybright's reply so you might have to set your s

I called Dale A. and spoke with him for a few minutes. He says that he can do any of them, except that he would need the car for aluminum. The best guess for costs are the following: Fiberglass $500
