All convertibles, the GTUs, and some turbo II's. I've seen them go for anywhere between $50-250 depending on the condition they are in.

No, there were some 87 model year Turbo II with a steel hood from the factory (mostly early production in 86).

Your best bet is to check it out and lift the sucker. You'll notice if it's steel or not right away.

are you trying to sell yours or looking for one?
I have about 6 or 7 Turbo II aluminum hoods and one NA aluminum hood.
All of which are for sale.
