herculesinwyoming Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 My wife ordered me a brand new hood for my 76 datsun off of parts train.com. The email i "accidentally opened shows it was $ 155 shipped. I sure hope it fits ok. My wife is awesome! Quote Link to comment
motavated Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 I think I have one. The buddy I bought it off says that you have to mod it... Quote Link to comment
herculesinwyoming Posted December 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 yeah the fender i got from them took hours to make fit, i expect issues, but it will be better than the on on my truck. while it sat for 20 years kids had jumped up and down on the hood, it is a mess.

dat620 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 nice surprise, have fun :D Quote Link to comment
herculesinwyoming Posted December 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 i will have to wait till christmas to test fit it, out here in wyoming parts cant be found. I will post my experience with it, good or bad, but for 155 bucks its worth the gamble. I may be coming out to portland and spokanne areas this summer to visit family and visit some salvage yards.

dat620 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 if all else in the future i can score you some good deals on stuff here in phoenix az, and rust free too, and grey hound bus has decent shipping prices, i can get decent prices on after market sheet metal that fits, it is the same sheet metal i have used for years, have had a few minor problems, mis aligned holes and such, but nothin as bad as you described, enjoy the new hood, got to be better than a beat up one...

pharouh Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Nice present! I hope it fits. You never know. I bought repop fenders,and one fits and the other doesn't. Go figure. Let us see it when you get it. Think she'll wrap it? :lol: Quote Link to comment
herculesinwyoming Posted December 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 she is probably crazy enough to wrap it Quote Link to comment
