    Need Jeep Hood Identification Purty Please

    Ok, as part of a scrap deal I ended up with this hood off a Jeep, Not sure of the years or model (TJ, PJ, Whaaaa?)
    So I was hoping someone here is a lot more of a "Jeep Head" than I am.

    Want to sell it, but would like to sound somewhat knowledgeable as to its actual title. Only thing I can really notice is that the mounts on it seem like a tapered mount vs a square, Google doesn't seem to help me out. Hoping someone here may know so I can list this thing up and sell her off.
    Thanks!




    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    No emissions sticker under the hood? I know most of the cars that we see in the shop have a sticker under the hood that tells you a bunch of info such as engine size, etc.
    If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all...

    You one smart cookie, It says emissions are for 1988.. So maybe a 87-95 YJ hood?

    If I had to guess
    I would go with Wrangler
    Hollander 117-01369
    WRANGLER 87-95

    Also comparing it to this photo >> 24700 AVS Bugflector II Hood Shield Jeep Wrangler 1987 2006 | eBay

    Notice the "stops" on the hood for the windshield to fold down and rest on.
    Not everything with a Jeep name on it had that option.

    Was gonna say YJ. The cherokees and other modles hoods wheren't fastened by hinges on the outside of it. Not sure if the CJ was in production then though?

    If the VIN is on that label, I can tell you all about the vehicle it came off of

    I was going to guess it went on a matchbox Jeep. That hood looks tiny in your pic Sledge.

    An good to see you plugged back in.

    Those things could probably be high with all the attachments. I found a replacement tailgate once for a ford ranger, the guy had been rear ended and the insurance had ford send him a new one, but he'd sold(or maybe traded) the truck before the new tailgate arrived, and it had just been sittin in his closet, still in the box. It had the chrome, the ford emblem, the latches that go to both sides with the handle on it, the cables, the bushings, everything ready to snap it right on and go, and the bill of lading in the box with it had a $1100 totall

    he'd advertised it for $50 and mine was an 87, it was for a 91, I said well, if it'll fit I'll buy it, that thing snapped on and latched just like a new one. I handed him a $50 bill and said, well I hope you're half as happy as I am, he said hek yeah, haha ; )
    I'd probly easy given him a $100, I'd been driving without one for over a year

    I did some local market pricing for used ones. Around here they tend to sell for about $200 bucks used, some with all the hardware, some without. So I'd be tickled with $150 or $200 bucks! Considering it could have gone in at .12/lb.. But I thought "Maybe it would be better to research it and CL it" No hits yet.. but I'm a patient man.

    How about an Ebay classified ad in the automotive section. Bigger audience,,
    That's how my ex-partner found his truck up in Mich. 75 miles away.

    Are Ebay Classifieds any better than CL ads? I know with CL you're technically only allowed to post in a single area, although many skirt this by using multiple phone numbers, addresses, and IP numbers, but I've never seen much use in that, as it's also a well known fact how you can do a site search for a particular item and get results from everywhere.
    When I first checked Ebay classified several years ago it seemed to be a much less used site

    Not necessarily better but in addition to, as a second option.
