Anson wheels/ Motion hood

[skierkaj]

Apparently Hot Rod Magazine thinks that their hoods are good enough to go on their project cars. I've likewise seen other people with hoods from the same company (70-81 Camaro), and they look fine to me. For an L-88 style camaro hood, would you rather buy one from Motion for $600, or one from www.up22.com for $220. To me, the choice is obvious. The less expensive one duh!

You can still buy directly from Legendary Fiberglass in PA who was one of the original suppliers to Motion.

The problem with the UP22 hood is the L-88 hood scoop is too short lengthwise. The front of the scoop starts almost a 1/3 way back from the front of of the hood and just plain does not look right. The L-88 scoop part on the original Motion hood from Legendary starts almost at the leading edge of the hood or at least within an inch or two-and gently curves back. Just like it was back in the day.
I bought an L-88 Nova hood from legendary for $335 at Carlisle and the quality was just about the best I've
seen.
The reason Hot Rod uses their hoods is UP is a BIG ADVERTISER. It's called scratching the back of the people that pay your bills. Hot Rod would write an article about the stuff that ends up in your toilet and portray it smelling like rose petals if you took out an ad in their mag each month.
Have you not noticed the mags anymore are not just one big infomercial for the advertisers??? When was the last time an article said this part fits/works like crap?

does legendary fiberglass have a website ,how about a pic of there L88 hood.my unlimited hood is okay except for the leading edge of it were it contacts the header panel.in that area it's at least 3/8th" or more higher than the header panel.what about motion hoods are they still available ,i heard they're quite pricey but are the real deal.one thing thoug about unlimited is there hood scoops very nice reproductions of classic style scoops like the stinger and the old style mopar pro-stock scoop offered in many sizes but all for $50.00 . i don't know of any other fiberglass co. that makes classic ,old school scoops like unlimited [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img]

I just got off the phone with Legendary as they agreed to make the special Phase III rear wing for my 69 BM Camaro that I am restoring. I think his name is Larry and is the owner. Anyway, he mentioned they had made a special prototype hood for GMMG for the new Berger/Motion Camaro that has been talked about elsewhere on the board and that they had made the hoods for the SLP Firehawk cars.

Kind of ironic that you mentioned the special hood they built for the new Motion Camaro. One of the things that upset Joel Rosen about he Motion project being shelved, was this hood, as he "called in a couple of favors" to get this Motion type hood built for 2002 Camaros.
All for naught. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

Do you know anyone who's interested in a 1973 RS Z28 Camaro. It has a newly rebuilt 1969 corvette 350 4 bolt main. I have a newer edelbrock intake to match the cam. I also have a holley 750 cfm carb. This car is straight it needs paint and interior. There is no rust on this car. I need to put the intake and carb on and buy new tansmission lines, the tranny is a newly rebuit two speed power glide with a B&M ratchet shifter and shift kit. The seats and dash are great the seat pads are great but they need to be covered. Also this car has all of it's chrome and it is in new condition. The rear end is a chevy 12 bolt Posi with 373 gears. This cars engine compartment is spotless and the shocks are air adjustable. This car has traction bars and a lot of engine and body chrome, oh yeah it has the original rear spoiler and an L88 Hood. My camaro is a looker! I want $3000 or trade of the same value. Please pass the word along! I also have a 64 Capri, 73 Silvarado Mud truck, 55 Chevy Bel Air Post, 195? Hudson Hornet, 65 chevy fire truck with a new 572 Big block, 51 Willys 2WD pickup with a 383, 77 Nova stock car, and i need a couple of sports quads the year of the quad doesn't matter but they have to be fast!
