I have a 68 only Fender. Only has 2 hinges holes for the 68 hood hinges. Very small rust hole in bottom of fender. It was tapped in the front corner and fixed. $300 plus shipping. Located near St Louis, MO

Where are you located? Something like a hood would be difficult and expensive to ship very far. If you would post your location or nearest large city and state/province it would help others know if your close enough to pick up parts or that they would need shipped.

Thanks.
I hate to say this, but by the time you find those part, ship them, weld them in, and do all the body work, it's probably cheaper to just get a rust-free western Cutlass shell and start there.

Here in Lansing,Michigan. I am not opposed to a dry western body but I have not been able to find one of those either.

The only thing is that this is a true 68 H/O and I would rather keep it true as possible.

Interesting... in Lansing?
I too am in Lansing
I heard a story about someone who has a '68 H/O from a friend from church last week... can't remember who that was though.

I have lots of rusty parts.
Got your D heads and carb?

Sorry, it's been hectic lately
Yes I have some '68 parts
no SHEETMETAL though which I see is what brought you here.

I make replica D heads and I have parts of a '254 carb and some '8251 carbs.

You can call or text to
