Had a body built from a Polar Light 1/25 scale kit #6604 = Leeroy Yrbrough 1969 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler II. I accidently dropped the hood from my work bench
and my dog chewed the hood up. Don't want to buy a complete kit just to get a hood. Any of you got a hood lying around you think would fit?

I'm working on a 71 Cyclone right now. I'll see if there's a spare hood.

Well, I not only looked in the '71 Cyclone box, I looked in every box of plastic parts I had, and there's nothing that even comes close to that unique
hood. I'm afraid you're building a hoodless bomber, no matter what you started out to build. Sorry.

Dare to be different, get a piece of styrene and make your own. Not perfect but a good substitute of you cannot find anything else. Just my $.02

There has been a time or two that I have messed up a model part and contacted the maker for the part. Maybe search the 'net for Polar lights and see if
there is a way to contact them for a replacement part. Sometimes I've had to pay a small fee but other times I got the part for free.

Would a vac u form hood work for you. I had a hood from the Cales. The plastic I have isnt the best (has some little bumps in it)but the hood formed OK. PM me
if you want it.
