I recently found this original early design 1970 Chevelle/El Camino cowl induction hood in a storage locker that was sold due to non payment of rent. This early style hood has smaller "windows" in the inner structure of the hood and lack the crumple zones built into the later design hoods. These early hoods are very hard to find for a correct early car. I believe they changed to the later design in around March 1970.


The hood appears to be complete less the vacuum pod for the exterior cowl flap. I understand that is looks nasty in the pictures with the old delaminating paint and the couple areas of amateur filler. The hood is actually very solid. The small areas of filler appear to be light skin coats over lightly sanded paint as shown. The only notable damage I see is a small dent at the driver's rear corner as shown. The hood has no rust. The underside seems to wear is original paint and is in good shape as shown. I am hoping for a local buyer as this hood is very large and HEAVY. That said, I can assist with shipping to get this hood to a good home. I have not stripped the paint off because it is raining here at the moment and taking the hood to bare metal is just asking for trouble.

SOLD Pending Payment.


THANKS SYC!


Thanks,

Jason

Just wanted to say a BIG Thank You to Jason for this purchase that I received today.
He went Beyond my expectation in helping with the Shipping and Superb communication.
Did a fantastic job packing the hood safely and went a few extra miles to deliver the crate to the freight company.

Hood was as described and my client is very happy.
I would highly recommend using Jason again.
From California to Toronto Ontario.

Cheers

P.S. Jason.
I managed to fix all the imperfections under the hood myself as you described those real well in your description. They were all pretty easy fixes with body tools I have in the garage.
She is now in perfect shape ready for Prep/Prime/Paint.
Some bonus items sitting along the edge of the hood.
Cheers.
