68-72 Nova 2″ Cowl Hood.

This 2 inch cowl hood is a direct bolt-on replacement for the stock hood on a 1968 Chevy II or 1969-1972 Nova, using the factory hinges and latch assembly rather than requiring new mounting hardware. What to check before buying Being steel rather than fiberglass, this hood is built to hold its shape without flexing or warping over time, and the underside is fully finished to a factory-style look rather than left raw. It arrives in a black electro coat finish, which is a rust-protective sealer rather than primer or paint. Installation Standard body work, such as test fitting, sanding and priming, is needed before paint can go on, and getting it painted and mounted by an experienced body shop is worth considering, given the trim and gap work a cowl hood involves. It fits a 1968 Chevy Chevy II or 1969-1972 Chevy Nova. Does this hood use the stock hinges? Yes, it uses your vehicle's stock hinges and latch assembly. Does it come painted? No, it arrives in black electro coat and needs standard prep and paint.
