Re: Name that Hood!
That's just a cowl-induction hood..Lots of places make them, with varying designs on the center ridge, angle of the front slope of it, etc.

Re: Name that Hood!
Bolt on use the factory hinges and pin on you have to use 4 hood pins one at each cornner to hold it down and you have to lift the whole hood off to take of a pin on. Get bolt on

Re: Name that Hood!
Bolt-on fits the stock hinges & is held down by generally the stock latch and open like a stock hood.
Pin-ons do not have the inner support structure to utilize the stock hinges and so are lighter. But they cannot be latched with a stock latch. They require 1 pin per corner, in addition to 2 or 3 pins/latches along each side. They hafta be lifted and set somewhere (like on the cars roof) not simply "tilted" up.

The hood in the picture appears to be a 3" Harwood cowl.

Re: Name that Hood!
does someone else sell/make a hood like this? (besides hawks thirdgen)
I like it because it goes with the lines that are already on the hood but I want the Louver indentions in it
any help?

Re: Name that Hood!
dang, thats one of the nice t/a's ive seen in a long time. I'm getting pretty much the same hood for my 'maro, i can't decided between the 3" and 5' though haha, but i'd personally say go for the cowl induction.

Re: Name that Hood!
Chevy already has the best traditional hood design with the cowl induction
shape IMO. Maybe a Cowl induction hood with the louvers built in would look cool

Re: Name that Hood!
You can always buy the "add-on" itself , and bolt to the stock hood , custom stuff.

Re: Name that Hood!
here is a quick chop of what I mean. (sorry it's weak)
If you want louvers in one of those mustang looking hoods just cut out the holes and glass them in

Re: Name that Hood!
Ya'll keep calling the Jongbloed "Mustang looking".....But the Jongbloed existed BEFORE the Mustang one did.
So....If anything, the Mustang copied it from us.

Re: Name that Hood!
But Ford made a zillion hoods that look like that. Chevy has a nice looking traditional design that even Mopar and Pontiac guys sometimes use.
