Default Hoods

Hey its been a long time since my last post, and well a lot has gone on, with my '68 coupe i swapped out original inline six, with a used 302 which decided to blow on me heading up a grade, so now have a crate 302 to work with, but anyways i was wondering if anybody knows of anywhere to get aftermarket hoods for that year/model, im looking to get a cowl induction hood, but will entertain other ideas, all input is appreciated.

Mine is the only one the company made/had;3" cowl. One thing that would definitely be unique is to get a Maverick hood and fit it for your stang, they look so awesome! Someone posted a pic of one a while back...

I say keep the original and put a scoop on it (that is if the original hood fits right). Buy the scoop and weld it on nothing like a metal hood.

I really like the hood with the turn signals in it, but a hood scoop works just as well
