Re: Cowl hood...lets see your pics

This is a GOODMARK Industries hood that I purchased right down the road a bit at GOODMARK in Lawrenceville, GA..........
Nice to have no freight and minimal damage.
Its all steel and I was pleasantly surprised how well it FIT !!!
Good luck with yours and I believe it gives these trucks/Blazers a great looking appearance !!!

Re: Cowl hood...lets see your pics

Mine is about 1.5" to 1.75" at the highest point. I think it is a goodmark hood too, can't say I'm 100% sure though.

Here's mine, also a goodmark all steel hood, fully braced underneath, so not much flex if any at 100MPH.

Good looking trux! Mine's not there yet, but I do have a cowl. Made it myself out of an airplane engine (Continental 6) oil pan.
