I'm moving so I need to liquidate some parts.I have no idea what to ask for this hood and hope that you can give me your opinions.
It came off a 1970 FJ40.It still has all it's parts including the windshield nozzles,hood prop,and an excellent chrome spear.One small ding where it looks like the hood hit the roof on the drivers side.Only light surface rust.
I'd appreciate your opinions.

Well...


There's a guy on Chicago CL with one for $400. He will hang on to it for a very long time.

Personally I wouldn't pay much at all for a hood. They aren't that uncommon. More hoods than tubs out there.

While I think $400 is way to high I do believe since your in Canada it's hold more value then south of the border. Rust free is not as common as here in the state and the cost to ship north of the border will drive the price up. Clean chrome strips are not common either. I think $200 would be easy. Could start high with a OBO and see what happens. Once you put a price you really can't go higher but you can always come down.

Thanks for the replies.I'll start at $250.

I'll get some stuff together and start a new sale thread as well as the local CL.
