L88 hood is cool too, definitely keeping it

Maybe swap hoods once in a while just for a different look

I would recommend contacting Gary Krause at Mongoose Motorsports to get a Grand Sport hood. He has a lot of experience making them.

HOWEVER...

If you plan to vintage race your car, you'd be well served to check with the vintage organizations to see if they would accept your car with a GS hood. Out here on the left coast, HMSA would not. In all probability neither would CSRG. It would be a shame to spend the money for a hood you couldn't use.
