Title: Can someone identify this hood?
Post by: acgwinn on January 14, 2007, 03:47:21 PM

THis is a buddy of mine's hood.  I'm not sure what it came off of.  I'm thinking its a early to mid 70's formula hood.  Any info would be appreciated.  Damian.

My vote is '74-'76 Formula hood :D

It's a 1976 Formula hood, they only made them that year. But it will fit on a 1970-1976 car.

Roger on the 76 hood -- one year production only.  The 75 had the "scoops" out at the edge of the hood -- the 77 up were squared off but roughly in the same position.

Yep..76...first year of a steel Formula hood. Pretty rare...one year only piece.
