I decided to sell it but a few people have mentioned that the hood is for a 38 truck? Or even a 38 Buik? I've compared, and it doesnt match? Would really like to positivley id it so I could sell it to the right person. Below are a few pictures of it. Thanks in advnced for your help. Pic A Pic B Pic C

Not sure if it's for a big truck or 1/2 ton. You can identify it for yourself by gong to [font:Arial Black]pictures found in the gallery[/font] I sent you a PM with another picture. Post this in the parts for sale section. | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 63 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 63 | Bill, Thanks for the tip on the htt thing. Gotta go back and change a few others. Linkies r workie now. I looked around a bit also, It aint no 38. Sides too tall. I would like to post, but as you can see, Its getting a little difficult to ID it. Maybe I'll leave it up to a buyer to figure it out.  jk | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 507 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 507 | it's a 41-47 first series hood.
