Not sure why an owner would do this-interesting for sure.

Damn, $2500 for the car + $2300 for a new hood. Not bad.

I wonder what else is wrong with it...

The "No Engine....." part may put a damper on things.

$2400 isn't bad for a S4 without an engine as long as everything else is there.
To bad it's not in NorCal.

I would think the hood would be a cool ornament for my garage wall.

FWIW I love the artwork, think it is unique and would be proud to drive a car with that hood.

OK so that explains the call from a repair shop in Atlanta asking about an engine for an S-4 which lost it's engine Someone was dreaming ! and had called a shop for an "estimate".
