Value of a '57 Hood? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a '55 3100 that came with a '57 hood on it. Since it already fits the truck, I am thinking that cutting and modifying the '57 hood would be better in the long run.

The other option would cost money to ship the hood (the '57), buy a new one (the '55 +shipping), and then getting it prepped and fitment issues.

Hate to ruin a good '57 hood, since it is a one year thing, but what do you guys think? I don't want the truck to have a 57' hood on the wrong year truck.
