3rd Gen Firebird Lift-off VFN hood - F-Body Road Racing and Autocross Forums

***SOLD!***. Sold to a local guy. Thanks all.

When we put the LS in the Firebird, we had to get a cowl hood. I picked up a VFN 4-1/2" cowl hood and modified it so it would work on our car. We had a body shop mold-in the headlight covers, and we added Dzus fasteners to fit our car. Later, we discovered that Holley made a low-rise LS carb intake and got that so we could replace the VFN hood with a C Prepared-legal hood (2" or less cowl). We have zero use for the VFN hood now, so offering it up for sale. It's in as perfect condition as possible for a fiberglass piece that's seen little use. No cracks or chips that I've noticed. It's painted low gloss black.

I'd like to get $300 for this hood, and pick-up in Pearland, Texas would be preferred. While we have the old box the replacement hood came in, shipping would be a real PITA, not to mention, expensive, these days. Thanks.
