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...
