Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
Cowl hoods take away from the natural lines of our 67-72 trucks. Just my .02 cents.

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
Have you checked out Unlimited Products? They are located in So. Cal. out in the high desert. My brother purchased one of their cowl hoods for a V8 Luv truck that he built. He was happy with the hood, but then he built it for drag racing and not a show truck. Their addy is up22.com

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
1BadChevy,
That would require the Skill/Time/Patience/Knowledge and Room to accomplish that task. NON of which I have. Roger

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
I purchased mine at the Pamona swap meet for $350.00 fits great. I don't know where Cobb, Ca is but if you can make it to Pamona they always have them there.

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
I am a big cowl hood guy on 73 to 98 but I would never have one on my 67. They just dont look right to me

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
I have always loved cowl hoods. I would never put one on my current 68 but I would love to get a shortbed 68 and get a 4 inch cowl hood on it. I think just about anything under 4 inches just looks stupid.

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
Wes,
Yes they may all have the screens, but LMC was the ONLY ONE to show it. No one else had it in their Pictures or their Descriptions. If that be the case, then they should update it, because I'm ready to buy one on MONDAY! Roger "RATIKLE"

Re: Cowl hoods for a 72 gmc
We sell Triplus hoods and they have the screen. Unfortunatly we do not have the personnel to offer every picture of every part or complete description of every part we sell. We offer way over 500,000 parts . I wish we could. I would just get one from LMC.
