I stopped by WH yesterday to pick up more parts for my rebuild (crash repair). While there I took a few pics of their new hood with my cell phone. Sorry for the poor quality. It was not mounted yet and still needed the hood pins drilled but here it is. I was going to get the GTX hood but this will now be my next hood. They should have them in stock in the next couple weeks.

Looks like it would be if you cut out the openings which you have to do on all FG hoods anyway. I was almost set to go buy the new Highlander hood to replace my old K-bar-S hood but I like to the looks of that new hood as well. I may have to drive over there and check it out in person.
Thanks for sharing!

I was close to buying a Highlander myself but was still a little concerned about clearance for my air cleaner.....Do you know if this one has any more clearance than the highlander?

Lots of Ooooohs and AAAAaaahs from this feller here. I love the Highlander hood but this one is like the Evil Highlander, more of the Sean Connery sort. ;D BTW Best Movie Ever. Well maybe not ever but it was goood.

Yeah, thats the one in question. All of my junk is at the powder coater or the media blaster, so its moving forward...hopefully I will be one the road by late spring.

Speaking of deal, I wonder how you came out on that tub??!! It was sold within 24 hours...I kicked myself for a week. BTW, I need to talk to you about some SS tubes for my Wrappers...keep an eye out for a PM.
