I'm interested in a 71 RX-2 hood too. I've got a banged up one that was dropped in shipping, but the center section is all pristine if you need one to start with.

I'd probably be game for a RX-2 and RX-3 hood, depending on prices. Mike

Oh check this out im going save big on shipping because i plan on picking them up personally.The guy is located in ontario so the drive is not that big of a deal. I will rent a mini u-haul trailer for 30.00 bucks and fill the truck up for about 80.00 and just go and scoop them up myself, what you guys think sounds like a plan.I just called my friend to tell the dude up north about doing a package deal just waiting for a call.Oh I don't know if you guys saw my other post but I custom make turbo exhaust manifolds for the rx2 i will post pics today when i get home sorry it is taking so long

If this is something RX2 owners are serious about doing I might be able to get it done with some real commitment. Let's keep that list going so we have a real idea and I'll check into a minimum requirement to recoupe labor costs.

1. Enzochan

4.

Yeah, I checked into it and I'd pretty much need ten sets pre-sold before I can commit to this. There is just no way I have the capital to front for the molds. Plus we need someone who is willing to let us borrow their perfect hood since mine has a few flaws.

I'm not asking for any money yet but we at least need 10 "serious-as-a-freakin'-heart-attack" people to step up and say they want one before I can get us some real estimates into time and cost. If we can even get to that point I'll start asking for deposits but from the way it looks I doubt it
