    1961 hood questions

    I have a 61 hood that I think has been mildly butchered. I have
    someone who has a '62 who has volunteered his for reference "looks". In
    the meantime could someone tell me if the 61 and 62 are the same? Would
    someone volunteer to send me some pics of the underside of their 61 hood
    paying particular attention to the raised "box channel" that runs from the
    left side to right side on the hinge end of the hood. Mine has been cut
    down (perhaps because of interference with the radiator in a previous life?).

    I also have a question as to whether the inner skin was a complete
    skin or did it have "cut-outs" for the 4 (I think) panels in the middle
    thus allowing the actual top hood skin to be visible from the underside??

    I have Noland's book and the AIM and the ST-10 but don't remember
    seeing this detail.

    Thanks!

        61-62 hoods are identical. 60 is by itself. 59 is by itself. 58 is by itself.
        The differences between the 59-62 hoods lie in the underside front ledge and how it interfaces with radiator support and radiator mount.
