Todd at Todd's gto's is selling what looks to be a very high quality 64 all steel reproduction hood for GTO.

Been waiting for this for a long time.

It will be a few weeks before I have it. I will post my opinion of the product here when I get it and look it over.

I am stoked. You 64 guys know how hard it is to find a GTO hood for a 64.
Not trying to advertise here, just want guys to know the long wait is over.

Price was kinda salty, ( 1250 ) but still much less than I have seen OE hoods go for.And most of them needed LOTS of work.

I anticipate that Ames will have them in stock soon so watch for them.

Thanks for the info. There is another thread that has some pics and info on it that you may want to check out too.
I look forward to your review

I have ordered one as well - and should receive it pretty soon (next week?). I am happy to provide a review as well. Is there anything that people are interested in seeing?

Hood arrived this afternoon. I only had time to stash it in a safe spot in the garage Behind the backhoe and a few carefully parked mowers.
I am going to open it up on saturday to inspect it and install it.

It is packed VERY WELL. Box is huge and plenty of room for padding/bubblewrap or whatever they used. I would bet it has 30 pounds of packing material.

I am fine with that.

More info coming soon

Mine arrived yesterday. Same thing just time to stash it with the car. I will be looking it over on Sat. as well.

You guys are teasing me, gonna cost almost double that to get one up here.

LATECH · 06-10-2017, 05:49 PM

Opened mine up. It was a box inside a bigger box. Packaging was phenominal

The hood is excellent quality.
Made from a decent gauge metal (heavy) at least as heavy as the original, and I would bet it is a bit thicker.
Clean stamping and excellent welds . Totally worth the money.AND it looks like an OE hood. Very nice piece.
I havent put it on the car yet, i will get to it tomorrow.
I will post more when I can. I am hoping I can post some pics.

Lemans 64...

It will still be worth it. When you see the quality, you will know. Look at what some of the used ones have been going for....

OK, got the hood on my car today and it looks pretty sweet.

I could not figure out how to post pictures here , but here is a link to some (crappy) pictures I took after I half ass got it adjusted .

Wow, your half a$$ed adjustment is better than I see from most body shops.

I deal with junk aftermarket parts all day, this hood looks pretty nice from your pics, definitely very workable. And considering the alternative.. a rotted out p.o.s. for nearly double at times, I'd say you did good! Congrats!
