replacement hoods

Who make the best fitting replacement '28 / '29 Model A replacement hoods? It seems Rootlieb replacements has some curvature issues that can be worked out and that Vintique are junk but don't now if that is quality or a fit comment.

Try Brookville Roadster. My hood on my '30 fits perfectly

I used a Rootlieb purchased through Bratton's on my '29 town sedan and was very pleased with the fit and the look.

Re: replacement hoods

Rootlieb is the only manufacturer of Model A hoods for the last 20 years. Carline in Texas made them in the 80s, but it is all Rootlieb now, and the fit is excellent.
