Default Where to buy a Sunoco hood?
I have searched and can't seem to find where to buy the original Sunoco hood. I know that VFN sells a Sunoco style hood but thought you could buy them from one of the sponsors here that also sold the GMMG exhaust, I guess they are no longer a sponsor. So my question is, can you buy an original Sunoco hood or were they only repo's being made to purchase?

VFN is still on the sponsor list to the right. Don't know if you can get it from anyone else other than them.

We offer the original Sunoco style hood - no line.
Our hood design was made similar to the Dick Harrell Camaro, which had a handmade steel version of the hood and only a few of these were made.
