:cry: Ok guys, I know this is a serious longshot, but, I need a cowl hood for another Capri. My 86 has a 2" fiberglass hood that came on it when I bought it. Now a friend bought a 79 and wants a cowl too. My hood has no brand name or part numbers anywhere on it anywhere. What I'm asking for is any leads or any ideas as to who may still make them? I've tried looking online at most of the bigger advertisers in the poplar Mustang mags with no luck :x Any help wold be appreciated!! Also, if anyone would happen to have one they wanted to get rid of (yeah,right!!) we'd be interested in talking to you too. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give, RAY

Howdy.

Mike has a Maier Racing hood. The fit is very nice, and he's quite happy with it. It's definitely for go more than show, as the underside is not fully finished and it's extremely light. http://www.maierracing.com/lcomp.html

H.O. Fibertrends makes Capri cowls as well, but I've never seen one in person. I'm sure the quality is very good, though, as they are OEM body part MFRs. http://www.hofibertrends.com/products.htm

Hope this helps. I can try to take some new shots of Mike's hood this week, if you'd like.

Hey thanks guys!!! The links really helped out!! I'm from Ohio so I'll probably contact HO Fibertrends first so I could look at one in person, then make a decision. I really appreciate the help and its good to know someone makes some cool parts for our Capris!!! Thanks again!!! RAY
