I need a hood! Please?

Yep. I have found the rest of what I need, just have the hood left.
Requirements:
Slight top side surface rust, peeling or chipped paint = ok.
Rust holes, rotten front lip, rotten latch mount = not ok.
Small minor dings or dents = ok.
Beat all to hell = not ok.
Stock hood = preferable, but could also work with aftermarket or fiberglass, if the price is right.
Black would be great but I don't care what color it is. Don't care what year it is.
Price point = preferably less than 100, but can go higher if its worth it.
Distance = Ontario, Michigan, Wisconsin? Ohio? I really want to stay within 400 miles of here or less. The farther I have to go to get it, the less I will want to pay for it.. lol
No local yards have any beretta's with good hoods at the moment, but I keep looking.
Thanks!

Damn, now that's two things I would have to come and get from you. LOL
Let me see what else turns up first. I really don't want to have to drive a whole far piece to get stuff, but who knows.
And Alpinestar, let me know what you find there, that is a bit closer to me.

no problem, i dont mind driving. i would have rather drove the beretta though, that impalla seems slow and it sucks too much gas.
i can get my hands on a hood at the wrecking yard, im not sure the condition as i was getting other parts not a hood, but im also looking at buying a 95 and possibly a couple others, i would have no problem finding you a hood if you want to do the drive or not. only problem i would have is transporting it and even meeting you somewhere around Toronto, only way i can think of is to put it on my car and drive home without one. i have access to a truck any time i want it but putting gas in it sucks.
I also know there is a beretta at a wreckers 10 minutes from my house but he would want like 200 for a hood i dont even bother going there, i wait until i find one at my special wreckers where i get any body panel for 15 bucks, the place with the 95 i got other parts from isnt too bad in prices, probably 30-50 for the hood, im starting to think i should have bought the whole car and stripped it and sold it back to them for scrap, ive already spent almost 200 getting parts off it and its been there for 2 years and no one else has touched it till i found it.

I still have thE hood off my car. It's bright red and has a couple minor dents for sitting around. No rot or rust on it,clean lip. I'm at the complete opposite part of the state as you. But, I'll be up to Higgins Lake for tip up town the weekend of the 28-29th. If your interested lemme know through PM. $75 picked up.
