Howdy :thumbs: The 701 which was built in 1961 had a hood with the solid grill the slotted hood wasn't used until 1962. If its a 701 and it has the slotted grill someone replaced the original with a later model hood.

Not sure, but I think I remember the members talking about a 1961 replacement grill that did have the slots. Like John...not sure which one you have, or if there is a difference. :wh::thumbs:

:D

The "service" part - which was the universal replacement for all 1961 to 1964 front-engined round hoods w/ rear tank - would have the slotted openings. (or someone could have just stuck the "wrong" hood on it)

A lot can change in 50 years.
