Round Eye w/cowl hoods

Post some pics, my hood is all tweaked on my 73. So I'm thinking of saving for a cowl hood.

Re: Round Eye w/cowl hoods

Here's mine, it's fiberglass. It was on the truck when I got it, but it looks like a Harwood I think.





The gap on the passenger side is pretty horrible. A lot of that may be caused by the fender that I think is aftermarket. It also doesn't help that all the body mounts are shot. The driver side looks pretty good.

I think the pics make it look bigger... or I'm just used to it. There's actually a fair amount of Super Duties running around here that make it look small.

Re: Round Eye w/cowl hoods

I used wipers off a 91 Suburban, clear the hood fine. They mount on the side instead of the top.
