Default About WS6 hoods?

Will it fit inside my Trans Am so I can take it to the body shop? Maybe if I put the seat down? Don't ask why I don't check for myself. I'm not at home to check and it's a long story.

Thanks!

Ummm, I doubt it. Plus I would think to get it to fit, you are running the risk of it getting damaged or damaging your car. Drive it there, then take the hood off at the body shop. Drive home without a hood and then put the spare hood on at home. If you get stopped, explain it to the cop and he'll probably laugh and tell you to go home.

it won't. My hood barely fit in our van, and there would be no way it would have fit in my car

I *heard* that it does. Though you need to take out some of the interior panels. I know our doors with the window up fit inside the car.
