Default feeler thread - what is this hood worth

I have access to a '95 Firehawk hood and matching airbox... off a real Firehawk thats been sitting in a pasture for at least 6yrs. Car stopped running and owner decided to park it so the exterior/body is in excellent shape minus sun damage

its the hood with the lip and rounded ram air openings... I would really prefer the WS6 hood on my own car so I was considering offering a trade.

Is this hood worth more or less than a WS6? Would the airbox sweeten the deal? If it is worth more, how much?

Dont get me wrong, I'm not trying to profit from it in any way... however, I dont want to just give it away either

TIA

the way ws6 ram air hoods go...you might have a 500-800$ part on your hands. Since it might need a paint job id say more 350-400.

get me some pictures and contact info. If its a real firehawk and I can work a reasonable deal out with the owner you can have the hood as a finders fee.
NO BS

I'll try to get some pics this week but its in the middle of nowhere on the other side of the county...

I think there may be some legal issues with the car b/c he'll gladly part it out but refuses to sell me the entire car...

Frankly I don't remember if it had an exhaust or not
