Yup, BUT... some vendors get better stock..
AMD /goodmark will tend to get the better quality passing stock..
Ideally if there is a vendor close to you that you can look the part over.. helps..
Many forget that many service body parts from the oem.. AKA nos..
where rejects off the line.. meaning they didn't fit worth a crap.. and they line is moving so they grabbed another..
Many also forget if they made them as good as oem new. you couldn't afford the hobby.. Go price out a new truck hood.. and then price a replacement for these trucks.. almost bet you can buy 3 of these to one of the new truck g.m. oem hood .
Many more forget the fit and finish of these in 67-72.. we've all seen way tomany trucks with more hours in panel fitment and gaps than it took to build the thing when new..
