With Stinger Fiberglass now seemingly gone, what company makes the best glass hoods?

[j-c-c-62]

I agree, and every time I visited, I only saw the owner and 1 other person working outside the office.
Being most car layups are a one-man job, and most FG car part shops likely only have single single purpose molds.

a problem with finding good employees.

During interviews, today's workers only want to know 2 things.
What days do I have off and when do I get paid ?
Meanwhile thinking,what is the least amount of work I can do to accomplish these 2 questions.
No pride in work anymore.

Aint that the damn truth

That is a very broad brush.

My sons in post college recent job interviews most focused questions were directed at what occupation their father had, they surmised it revolved around a family instilled work ethic/mindset.
Maybe employers need to ask better job interview questions, and while on the subject, what did your kids absorb?

I’m fortunate enough, I think, to have one of the steel 65 hemi scoops made by the guy in Peru. I didn’t buy the scoop; it came with the car when I bought the unfinished project.

I have what is probably the last NOS RO/WO hood scoop, anywhere. It came from the Keith Black garage sale. If I ever get off my ***, I have an acid-dipped hood and all the correct stuff to make my WO, all steel again.

Nice attempt to tank a thread, so as "not to argue in another's thread" unwritten rule. may I suggest,
should have saved paper and just printed "We only hire Dunning-Krugger Candidates"

Gents, I just received a call from AAR Fiberglass. They are going to restart the business in November and only work on Mopar items. The company had a problem with finding good employees. I know that issue first hand. I placed an order with him.

Great news
I just went to their site & they have a bunch of stuff listed
I'll be in the market for a few things, A12 6bbl base & 2 bumpers for my 68 RR
maybe even a Air-grabber 4bbl base for a 69 RR too

That's a nice piece, do you have contact info for your supplier, that you would be willing to share? I have a 66 coronet that I'm working on, it needs something like that.

Steel hood scoop? How much was it? And contact information for who makes that scoop?

That seems to me a rather universal offering that AMD sheet metal ought to offer, if there is that much demand for it in metal. It's right up their alley.
Has anybody reached out to them to inquire if they would pursue offering it?
No harm in asking.

I approached AMD about these scoops and other items, but it fell between the cracks of what makes sense for a business model world. I completely understood, so I made my own A/FX scoop out of aluminum.
