1969 Nova with Camaro hood.

To bad there isn't a picture of the front of the hood. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1969-Chevrolet-Nova-SS/232580225524?hash=item3626dc99f4:g:LeEAAOSwEOpaH6S k&vxp=mtr

SS Nova's used that hood also.

Nova SS hoods don't have that raised center.

Looks like Camaro hood was photo shopped over the Nova hood, or a Camaro hood is laying on top of the Nova hood.

ahhh

Yeah, they really cheaped out on the nova SS. They just bolted the louvers on the flat hood!

This one is not photoshopped. It's currently getting bodyworked in the garage.

i put one on a 70 Nova in the 90s...did it exactly like that..back then..it was difficult to find a donor hood...because there where no reproductions..so i searched for a wrecked hood, because i could even fathom cutting up a mint hood..

had some serious time in it, thats for sure..migged it..took most of the day i remember..doing spots..geez it was carzy..but i was so excited before i even got the thing painted, one of the Nova supplier specialists put one on a Nova, and was on the cover of their catalog...cant even remember the company now, but i thought i had an original idea..oh well..i loved that car...

painted the car red..had a 454 and a 4 speed...and the hood looked like factory when i was done..its the car that got me hooked on 68-72 Novas..i did 9 of them in 3 years...they where everywhere...and dirt cheap..all but one got big blocks and 4 speeds...i worked on the line at a big independent bodyshop..and spent 3 years there working days and on my cars after hrs..., 12-14 hrs a day and loved it..miss all i accomplished..thats for sure...

now i cant even look at one with out rolling my eyes.."never again" i say, but i dunno..i burnt myself out on Novas..i loved them, just dont want to work on another............ever..lol..

I can't even believe how many hours I have in this hood !! Never mind a brand new repro Camaro hood and decent Nova hood to start. Game plan is to try to match the Sun baked paint on my 68 Acadian which will be getting a 427 transplant.

Still need to figure out what to use in place of the soft 200r4.

uhhh, well........stick shift of course...

i think i came in saturday mornig around 9 am and started on my hood...worked 7 or 8 hrs and came in sunday and late in the day primed it...i remember thinking during it wasnt worth it..but painted and on the car, was glad i did it...

Yeah, it needs a clutch pedal and at least 4 gears.
