Guys I need some pics of some 67-68 trucks with steel cowl hoods like the ones goodmark/GMC paul sells.

And if you have any strait on front shots those would be nice.

Man I've got to get me a cowl hood. Can you make a seal to the air cleaner with these hood easily?

mikep · 01-12-2003, 05:20 PM

I guess you could seal the air cleaner to the hood but youd either have to be running a tunnel ram or build yourself a foot tall box. Its quite a gap from the hood to the carb. In either event the cowl hoods are not set up like real cowl hoods are with a cut out for the air box and ducting to the plenum.

Great pics guys

Just what I wanted.

Dean23 · 01-12-2003, 05:57 PM

here are a couple of mine

**Classic Heartbeat** · 01-12-2003, 06:14 PM

Here is my panel with a cowl hood... It's not painted though.

Dean23 · 01-12-2003, 06:18 PM

those cowl hoods look way better on 67-68 then they do on 69 and up, the hood flows into the scoop better on the 67-8's. Up here i havent seen one on any other 67-72, hopefully I can have my truck done and be the first with the hood so I don't look like a follower

bowtie · 01-12-2003, 07:29 PM

here's a couple

the GMC is a 70 and the yellow one is a 72 chevrolet with a 68 front clip.

Dean23 · 01-12-2003, 07:31 PM

sweet yellow 69, thats the way mine will look when its done.

68 with 350 TPI · 01-12-2003, 07:49 PM

These hoods look great

Keep em comming.

lunatic · 01-12-2003, 07:55 PM

Nice looking rides Bowtie,the68/72 is looking good

gizmo · 01-12-2003, 08:42 PM

Here is mine! The cowl is fiberglass but the hood is steel. I wanted my cowl to be a little bit taller than the 2 inch that is being offered. Mine is 4 1/2 tall. It may interfere with the passenger side windsheild wiper with the hood all the way open. I'll find out for sure after I get the windsheild in.

Stano · 01-12-2003, 11:55 PM

Here's mine. I know you asked for steel hoods but I like the 4 inch better than the short steel ones myself. Although the look on WES's panel looks great. The 4 inch does interfere with the passenger wiper when opening but if you are careful its no problem. Not a real good pic, sorry.

No such thing as a bad cowl hood on a 67-68

BADASS2001CHEVY · 02-26-2003, 09:13 PM
