Woody,
I hope you plan on making a whole bunch of those.
Well at least two. Buddy!

A whole bunch of what? I havent seen anything from woody but a bunch of scoops that didnt come on his truck or Challenger that somebody else made.
If hes building something for himself, does he plan on mass producing them in his backyard? Can he promis to build a good product that will fit like a stock hood?
Can he build something and ship it out for less money than a big company?
Im about to give up on anybody ever building anything that enough people would be willing to spend their money on if it costs more than $500 "shipped".
I know money is tight right now, but I think to many of you guys are expecting somethin for nothin, and it aint going to happen.
Most of you guys probably got a great deal on your Crossfire like i did, so why not spend some cash to get something of quality?
I know I dont want to put any crap on mine.

Iam making a partial hood to do mods to so that I can get the final to a point that I like it. THen you all will get to see it and decide if you wanna do it to your hood and I have a back-up company that if there is interest can do the production. I am doing the prototyping cause I like to experiment and the challange amuses me at times.

Hood concept is no raised part(s), water and rain tolerant, low cost to replicate if desired and classy looking. Scoop follows the existing lines and matches the shape of the car / hood.

Oh yeah, its functional to allow cool down and in motion will extract heated air from just behind the radiator. When I get it I will probably do it to my hood unless there are hoods at the bone yard that will by spring. If it is appealing, other can choose to follow on and get a producer to gin up the hood.

On rev 4 so far, Woody
