I am looking for a 97 SS hood, Red with about 25% damage for a "project" I am working on. I call them,The guy on the phone says "We dont have any SS or ram Air hoods any more, Some guy came in a few weeks back and made an offer to buy them all" And he took them...

WTF! I bet he is trying to fix them and selling them on ebay or somthin.. why would you need all the darn hoods!!

If I would have needed a spoiler last week when the brake light caught fire, I might be a little hard pressed to find one of those, too [Frown]

I bet you are right, he is trying to make a quick buck off them.

That might be valuable in the future.

Don't think they're making more. Thanks.

You can still get SS hoods and spoilers from GM.....

Posted by Doug 97SS #1499 (Member # 100) on :

Yup I agree with MM. You can now buy 96-97 SS hoods through GM.

Remember, the '96/97 hoods and spoilers were different than the '98+. Bill is looking for a '97 hood.

Billy G has always been a horses ass.

Contact Kerry Lambert in Boonesville, MS.

Been a while since I talked to him, but here is his shop # 1-877-728-0409

I think the 96-97 hoods are only availiable through SLP and they need a vin and they will add a core charge.

I wrecked my SS a few years back and I needed a new hood. they had to ship SLP the broken hood to get back the $1,500 core charge.

Posted by DWCamaro69 (Member # 1498) on :

I know this doesn't help Bill but I have a '02 SS/LE hood with VERY minor damage. The new hood was about $1900. What should I ask for it and where should I advertise it (other than here of course, which I will do)?
