VinsRJ 721 #1 Posted March 10, 2010 Got this hood and have no idea what model WH it came from. Looks weird to me because it has the open grille section but had a front mount gas tank, the broken tank straps are still attached. Whats it for? Thanks for your help.

bell 11 #3 Posted March 10, 2010 It is a replacement hood for a 1961 Suburban. The replacement hoods had the "slots" in the grille. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VinsRJ 721 #5 Posted March 10, 2010 Thanks! Does anyone here on RS have any interest in it? Its straight (including the grille bars), un-cut, has a couple extra holes right under the decals (thats where the PO bolted the replacement gas tank straps) because the tank straps are missing/broken. Would make a great start to a nice hood. Thanks again for all your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CasualObserver 3,406 #6 Posted March 10, 2010 If anyone wants to see what this service replacement hood looks like in use, Jeff (fireman) used one on his RJ-58 resto last year in this thread. http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showtopic=7994 B) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
