I have 2 hoods non gt, don't know if I should sell them or use them to make molds for fiberglass hoods since there are none available, and then sell them. Don't know how much one could make, but if the right offer comes up... They're both in good shape, and ill even sand them. One is I think 72-74. And the other is 75-76?

I have molds for a GT fiberglass front end and door skins. Someone who knows how to make actual parts from these molds is welcome to come to Northern AZ and make them.  

No pics of the molds, just of the parts they make.
