Default 3RD Generation (1979) Cowl Hood

Hello all! I am looking for a hood with a 2 inch cowl but I have no idea where to find one at a decent price. I managed to find a few but they are all $600.00 and up, but I cannot see myself spending that much on a hood. I would prefer a bolt-on over a pin-on hood and I am do not have a preference on fiberglass/metal. Does anyone have any advice on where to look for these hoods with a lower price?

3rd gen part prices are not going to be cheap. If you find what your looking for buy it or figure out how to make it yourself. There isn't much aftermarket wise out there for us.

I was afraid of that being the case. But I really want the cowl hood...I guess I will be spending the big bucks to get my car fixed up the right way. Oh well, it will be worth it in the end. It will just be a little longer than I expected to get everything I need.
