Default I weighed my stock SS hood today

I weighed my stock SS hood today. This weight is with the front latches and the 4 rear bolts still on the hood. It weighed in at 51 lbs.

There are pics of my new fibgerglass bolt on/ pin on SS hood in my web page. It is non functional. It weighs about 15 lbs or less.

Edit: He is not a sponser. Not thinking I posted his phone number. That is not fair to you Jantzer. Sorry. I deleted the number.

BTW, race only T-tops. How much <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
