Hood interchangability 1980 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have an 1980 BIG 10 shortbed, 90 percent of the body is straight except the hood. What hood will interchange with the 1980 front clip?

73-80 hoods will work. 79-80 hoods have an extra rib in the front of the hood above the grille, if you are trying to stay era-correct.

All of the re-pop hoods are 79-80, if you decide to buy a new one.
