What hood is this? (Real car, two pics)

[LDO]

I saw this at a job site today. A buddy and I were trying to figure it out. I’m thinking GM circa 1970ish. He thinks it’s from a big Ford.

late 60's Chevelle cowl induction......my guess

[pack rat]

I would guess a 70-72 Chevelle SS minus cowl induction (no trap door)

Or possibly a '72 Heavy Chevy

71-72 Heavy Chevy!!

1970, non-Cowl Induction; 1971-1972 Heavy Chevy and standard Super Sport.

There may or may not be structural differences between those years, but am not sure.

Thank you. I was thinking Chevelle, but I didn’t know ‘68/‘69 was separate from ‘70/‘72.

I vote Super Sport. I think the Heavy Chevy had standard hood pins, but not 100% certain.

That’s from a 1972 Chevelle.

You're all wrong. It's an El Camino hood.

72 GMC Sprint. ?

Did you bet money on it? Cause you'd win!

What a waste of a good steel hood. Probably worth some money to someone.

That’s my guess too. The shape is all too familiar.

Might even fit the '70-'72 Monti Carlo... I could be way wrong on that one... ??

The Monte hood is different, however the trunk lid is shared with 68-72 chevelles and 70-72 skylarks.

That came off a rare 1943 Henway.

Was that the 6- or 8-cylinder Henway? The 8-cylinder one likely weights more.

I like that it says "Cowl Induction", but there's no flap door on top for it.
