Default Anyone Know Who Made This '80 Style Hood ?



I bought a wrecked '74 back in the Summer that someone was planning on fixing and sold off all of the new & used parts except this unusual hood. It had been painted but never installed. It is apparent that it is an '80 Style Custom Hood. I kept it to go on my '80. My question is Has anyone ever seen one and who made it?Thanks JIM

Wow.. that's an awesome hood. I think I saw a modified one on a Lingenfelter tuned 78 Pace Car once, it has 2 nostrils in the front (that didn't look very good IMO)

I assure you these pictures don't do this hood justice. It's a really nice hood. I was just curious as to who made it. It is a very good job whoever did.

I asked Vanacoors about it, He wants to see it. I am going to carry it to Knoxville EXPO and meet him to see about fitting the L-88 airbox in it. He said he may carry it back and copy it. JIM

It's 7:15 PM 01/02/03 I've had 160 hits on this post and no one has ever seen one of these before?

That's It!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm using it then for sure!

LOL JIM


Cappy, Flash, I'll see what Vanacoors has to say about a copy. Probably going to be a Limited Edition Model. May even have to show proof of ownership of an '80,'81,or 82, just to buy one. LOL, JIM :seeya

If I had won the 137 million dollar lotto the other day I would own one of everything Chevrolet made in 1967 and build a '67 Chevrolet Dealership to put them in.

Maybe I should have bought a ticket?

1967 was my favorite year for Chevy, still is...................Jim :seeya

Yep! That's a good Page!

I was a Sophmore in High School that year, Life was good! I learned a lot of bad habits that year..........................

I had a friend who's Dad was an Engineer. He ordered a 1967 Red Corvette 435 hp Roadster that year. We al told him Yeah, he's ordered a Corvair! guess what? It sure was sweet!

'67 Heaven, Yeah it was, I can relate to that ,being as you put it that way. JIM :yesnod:
