Aftermarket Hood
 

Does anyone make a aftermarket hood for the 1966 chevy trucks???? I'm sure they cost a lot...but where?

Linky ??

There was a post not long ago of a hood soon to be released. Can't seem to find it, may have been it the vendors section.

Great. Please post pics when you get it in. :)

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Hey Ol Skool, I was working in your town today and those hoods don't come with the front and rear inner brace, you have to use yours.











just kidding!

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Brothers is working on getting some.

Re: Aftermarket Hood

Re: Aftermarket Hood

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

man I could really go for a 2 to 3 inch cowl..4 inch too much for my taste.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I am not into the cowl hood thing,,,,but I did order the one listed above for $779...250 shipping.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Show pictures when you get it.

Re: Aftermarket Hood

This is a 4" cowl, it's not too big. Visibility is fine.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Lmc Advertised stock steel hood for $729.00. Just saw the add today. That should save me time. I have three that suck.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I would love a honest review on these aftermarket hoods. My fear is they will be like all the other aftermarket panels. So far I've order after market fenders, bedsides and a tailgate. All of which have one flaw or another.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

i won't be able to give one for a while, but I am saving my pennies. Hopefully it has extra braces in the weak points, so it won't bend or crease. Thats a huge hood and thin metal won't cut it without extra bracing

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Bringing this back to the top. Has the hood come in yet? Been 2 weeks, so I have to ask.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Not yet.............I will post it when it comes

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Were did you get that cowl hood?

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I was at classic parts on 2-16-17 and was going to buy one of these hoods to avoid shipping cost, but they didn't have them in stock yet...

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I believe its Unlimited products. Its 18 years old.. clears a blower and 2' air cleaner, just barely.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

are they as strong as a steel hood?
Hows the fit?
Thanks!

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

It's strong, the fit isn't the greatest. Seems a little narrow overall. I'll pm some pictures tomorrow.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

They just got them about a week ago....mine was there first

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I'm unable to post photos for some reason. It's about 1/2" narrow. 3/16-1/4" on either side of the hood to the cab. Like I said it's an old hood. Maybe the figment has improved over the years.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Did you get your hood? I'm trying to decide if I should fix the one I have or spend the money on a new one. Interested to see what you think of the fit.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Like all repro sheet metal, it's Chinese. Nothing is made here. All truck suppliers will be carrying it.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Bringing this back up again. Not clear by the conversation if you ever got your hood. Looks like two different conversations at once by the end. If you got it, how did it fit? Pictures?

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

Any opinion on this after market hood yet.

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I also figured someone that has a repo hood would be posting something about them by now, good or bad......LOL maybe they too busy cutting them up to make them fit.....

Re: Aftermarket Hood
 

I started a thread on this previously after this one got a few pages back. Never got a review. Nsane Hot Rodz said he had used them and there were pictures on his Instagram and web site. I looked and only found one picture of the hood alone off the truck and one taken from the front where you could not see the actual fit with the rest of the truck. He never would post any here.
