Has Anybody Purchased a New Steel Replacement Hood for their '64-'66???
I would like to know if anyone has purchased a NEW hood for their 64-66 C-10.
If so, from where? and how was the experience? I want to buy one, and I realize that some work may be needed to obtain a good fit, but I already plan on welding up the seams anyways. Please feel free to comment with experience and/or opinions! |

I think that I get it now! Thanks for the help guys! I would still really know who makes or supplies the best hood though! Or, does everybody just sell the same hood? |

There are only a couple overseas manufacturers of aftermarket replacement body parts. I would imagine the hood is made/marketed by Key Parts/Tri Plus, but I could be wrong?

My suggestion is to find a retailer close to you, go look at what they have in stock. If you decide to order, look that dude over real well, take measurements of a stock hood with you to compare. Good luck!!

I wish it were that simple! It appears that everyone (Brothers, Classic, and most likely LMC) gets these hoods from Auto Metal Direct in GA. so, I can't just run over there and look one over so easily. But everything that I have read in different forums state that their quality levels are superior to the rest of the market. I was just really interested to see if anyone on our forum had any personal experience. Has anyone used any replacement parts from AMD? (Auto Metal Direct) |

I am really trying to narrow things down to a brand/supplier name for the hood that I want to purchase...I really appreciate any and all info that has been posted!!! |
Re: Has Anybody Purchased a New Steel Replacement Hood for their '64-'66???
Well Guys!!!
I pulled the trigger and ordered a new hood from Auto Metal Direct....The company that seems to be the Supplier/Importer of what appears to be the hood that everybody offers for the 62-66 pickups. I figured that I would just order it from them directly, rather than ordering it from someone else and getting a hood that has been shipped all over the place before finally getting to me. I will keep everybody posted on my experience with this endeavor... http://www.autometaldirect.com/amd-h...k-p-19477.html |
