I don't think your goin to find anything for a 340/s reasonably priced ?? But I think maybe JDJR was making the hoods along with the Dator lite hoods ?
Joe are you out there ?? :popcorn:

Lee Fredrickson aka Classic Muscle Sleds make a repro glass hood. Somewhere around $200+ last I knew.

Most of the 340/S sleds now have an aluminum Cyclone pan on them. The original ABS and glass pans didn't hold up.
Fredrickson also makes a glass Dator pan that I would think you could make fit, but it will look just like the aluminum Cyclone pan.

A 340/S is a hole in the space/time continuum, into which money disappears...never to be seen again.

It's not so much about finding cheap parts, as it is just finding parts at any price.
