WANTED : 73-78 hood
 

I tried this a while back .I would like to buy a good original hood for a 73-78. I have a new hood with the raised lip across the front but would rather use the correct hood .I do not want a 79-80 hood. I am not looking for a hood that needs bodywork or has rust. The last hood I went to look at that was suppose to be perfect turned out to be a 79 hood and had been ran over once .I drove to DFW to look at it and was very disappointed. I bought the rest of the truck for parts but left the hood .Please make sure the hood does not have the raised portion across the front. I dont mind driving. If you have a hood I would like to see a picture . I can be reached at 979-272-9403 or frankm@tconline.net .Thanks , Frank

I got one and here's the pics. A little rust but it is not creased. Plus I am relatively close! $75 is what I'm looking to get. Email me at sanders4@cebridge.net if you are interested.

rust...no biggie

73-78 Hood
 

Thanks for the reply to this post .I am looking for this hood but without the rust. I have one right now that has a dent on the drivers side . It would probably need the same amount of bodywork but I dont have the ability. I might take it to a local bodyshop for their opinion. I would gladly pay twice that for the hood I want. Frank

Not a problem. I wanted to fix it myself also but like you, doubted my abilities. Since they only make the 79-80 hood aftermarket, (like I want aftermarket anyway) I found a perfect original 79-80 style hood at a local salvage yard. I hate to settle but I'm soo anxious to get my truck done. Good luck in your search. ;)
