Hi guys I have a 68 panel i'm redoing I really want it to stand out. Everyone seems to have a 2" goodmark cowl hood so I want to go bigger you know really stand out. but I can't seem to find a larger metal one for 67-68 chevy trucks. I'm looking for a 3 or 4" ?????????

i wont say for certain but when i was looking for cowl hoods and wanted bigger than 2" i would have had to get a glass one which would have meant new hood springs as well hope this helps you so yes they are available just in fiberglass

These are glass not steel but they make up to a 6" cowl for a 68.

I like the looks of a 4".

buy a 2in metal one and add 2in. sure it's a little, ok allot of work but it will get you what you want.

Around here every truck has a 2in cowl hood , including the soccer mom's new Suburban / Tahoe's , if ya want something different have the hood louvered .
Wasn't really what you asked , lol . Just my .02 .

Board member bigjimz111 has the 4" cowl hood on his truck. I really like that look also.

your either going to have to get a glass one, or fab your own up... I think i have seen steel scoops somewhere, maybe Goodmark.. im not sure
This is a 3 inch from Harwood, its fiberglass on a 69-72 style but you get the idea... I think this is the perfect size, and I plan on running this one

1LoC10 · 12-15-2006, 12:28 PM

yeah I checked goodmark.. they sell just steel scoops.. you can just weld this and mold it into your stocker
