After 65post was asking on here about the differences in NACA hoods year to year , which hood do you have 73 or 74/75 ?
If it is a 74/75 style with 1973 stamped on the underside , what stamp is on the outter skin ?
It will be on the passenger side flange behind the hinge with the hood open .
Just curious .
Mike.

If this is for me Mike, it will be a while before I can answer that, don't plan on seeing the car for a while. I have two hoods, one on the car I got from you, do you remember what year it has no grilles and another I got from an OPP officer who was tasked with cleaning out the unclaimed stolen property shed and he said it was a 1975 for sure. I'll let you know when I find out.

Thanks Ray , But for all as i have never noticed the extra stamping . If it is a vin i have to dig into the collection for the correct hood . lol
Looks like four or five digits and mine being a 75 hood , it ended in 75 but i could not make out the first three or four digits . I am curious if it is a vin # and if not are any stamped with a 74 or if any rear vented 73 only hoods have a 73 code there . I do feel it is a vin thou .
Thanks .

This has no correlation to my VIN on the vehicle.
Hope this helps.
