New to the relm of vintage projects and replacement parts costs. What should I expect to pay for a dent-free original '31 used hood with side panels in good condition? Prices are seemingly all over the place.

Thanks
 
They are all over the place but 100 would be a good price. Last swap seen one for 400 and another for 30 and it was sold.
 
Side panels are prevalent
Good, straight tops are a bit harder to find
Really decent hood, all 4 panels $200-250
Imho
 
I agree with the 250 quote for a real decent one.


I used to sell them for 150, but in my area, that buys you a shabby one now.


with a hood, more then maybe any other body part, it is imperative to start with the best you can find. torn hinges or dents in the louvers is mucho work.
 
As usual, prices vary greatly. If the explorer is in an area with many events where parts are sold, the chances of finding a better deal are better. The LA area would be better as estate sales and swap meets abound. It's dying season for so many Model A owners out here and such parts are offered by the families. I belong to three clubs and the average age is in the seventies. Good Luck: Fred A
