Anyone make or convert a stock 68 hood into HD style?
Hi there, new to the site. I have a 68 swb that I have been looking to get a different hood on.. I see on the 88-98 trucks, some guys are grafting the 08+ style hd hood on top of the stock hood and they can look nice if done right. Anyone do that or something similar to the 68 style hood??

The 00-02 HD hoods already look like a 67-68 hood???
I guess you'd gain a rounded edge and lose the 67/68 style line down the middle? Could look pretty cool. I'd say go for it, but I have yet to see anyone else do that.

I dunno .... But that dually is sweeeet ! I'd be skeptical of a hood like that on an older Chevy . Maybe try a photoshop .
