Is there a way to identify my cowl hood?
It has 302 badging and looks to be original factory steel cowl hood.
If original 302 hood, what may it be worth?
Doing some detail work to car and would like to change 302 badging to 355
Where might I find 355 badges?
Thanks in advance

I used this to check on a hood we have.

Thank you,
That thread helped a bunch.
It appears that I have G.M. hood

I will mention that my reproduction cowl hood's corners more closely match the original than the posted reproduction. Within the past few years there have been a number of vendors who have retooled their hoods.

Marquez Design and Fesler Billet both make individual billet numerals for making custom C.I. badges like you're after and both are advertisers here.

Thanks for the post - I always wondered if the cowl hood I have was an original GM, it is!
