NOS MAFAC Hoods
Full hoods are now sold out. Still several pairs of half hoods left.
I'm helping a friend sell several pairs of these NOS MAFAC hoods. All hoods are pliable and without cracks.
The full hoods are made of thick rubber which makes them a challenge to install. Lubrication, either dish soap or teflon spray, helps a great deal.
Your choice full hoods or half hoods, $20 shipped first class within the U.S. $24 shipped via priority mail. Add $15 for each additional pair.
I'm willing to ship internationally but the postage rates are excessive. Add $10 for International 1st class to Canada.
The half hoods are only available in red. The full hoods are only available in gum.

I'll take a set if there is anything left over but since I'm 4th in line, my guess is that the pickings are going to be slim,

All you guys buying these know I fix those adjusters so they don't break, right? $8 a fix, exchange basis (is faster that way).

Awesome that those were sold here instead of eBay. Kudos. P.s. where were these in February when I needed them. Haha.
