Hood question

Hello!

I was wondering if someone could clear this up for me.

Will the 67-8 sloped hood fit on 69-72 trucks?

For example, I was considering getting one of those aftermarket cowl induction hoods for my 70 Blazer, but I like the lines of the early hood better. Am I in for a lot of work here, or can I keep the same grille etc?

Thanks in advance!
JB

I've seen a few trucks where they layed back the front of the '69-72 hood so it looks a little more like the '67-68. Of course, that would be a lot more work than changing the front clip.

Another question along the same lines...

Can you use the 69-72 hood cowl?(the little piece that goes in between
the windshield and the hood)

I want a 67-68 front clip, and I am not sure if I should keep my hood cowl...
or if I have to get a 67-68...

thanks

Lenny

The cowls are the same so you are good to go.
