RE: [Chevelle-list] Best 66 cowl hood?
I can't speak from experience on the 66/67 fit, but can, for there fit on 70/72 Chevelle, 70 chevy Truck, 85 El Camino and My 2000 Silverado. I am impressed. Will you need a skim coat in a corner the 85 Elky hood needed some work ( low spot did not need ant regular filler just a skim coat of Polly ) YMMV . But Good mark ind. Hoods fit the best of any after market hoods IMO. I had one 64/64 Unlimited Fiberglass, After too mant hours to make it flat I was never able to get it's front to rear couture to line up with the fender couture ( it sat High in the middle ) I sold it to a local Drag racer... Almost all the major re pop parts suppliers carry there products...

RE: [Chevelle-list] Best 66 cowl hood?
I also have a hood from Unlimited, but unlike Jim, I wish I'd never bought mine. However, thanks to the Cobbler's Shop and 40+ hours of their labor, the Unlimited hood fits and looks great. Knowing what I know now, if I were to do it over I'd get the hood from Goodmark because I'm sure it wouldn't have needed as much labor to fit and look as good or better then the one I have.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Best 66 cowl hood?
Metal or fiberglass? If metal,Goodmark isn't that bad as I've seen some pretty decent hoods from them. If you're looking at fiberglass,VFN or Glasstek make pretty good stuff. Anyone know if Harwood builds a glass 66 cowl hood? Their backside finish is very nice.
