Thanks guys.Yes hood is in excellent shape.No rust at all.Some surface only.Does not have inserts but i have seen these are available.I have no intentions on cutting this hood at all.I know it would do somebody some good as original.Would rather sell or trade to someone who could use it.I have been around cars enough in my life to where I have a great respect for them and would rather somebody use this hood that needs it.I guess ill post an add after some research because i honestly dont know what this hood is worth.I wouldnt mind making some moneyLOL,but just want something i can use for something someone else can use.Not looking to make anything really.If so great.I love to help out so when i need help i can get it.Thanks again,Randy.
