Pics to finish up the hood report
« on: January 12, 2024, 06:47:37 PM »
We need the following pics to finish up the hood report

1.  Underside pic of a late 1969 model year SS hood without the underhood insulation attached.
2.  Top side of a 67 SS hood without the louvers in place. We need to show that there were no drain holes.
3.  Original hood side rubber "bumpers" for 1967 and for 1968-1969.  There are 2 styles.
4.  Original underhood insulation pics for all 3 years and all types. These will be hard to come by for all applications but at least a few would be good to show.
5.  A side by side picture comparison of an original hood insulation clip and a reproduction clip.

You can post the pics here and then if they will be used and I need larger sizes or your photo credit information I will contact you.

Thanks in advance.

67 hood side bumper.
It would not let me upload a pic.

Looked at my side bumper stash and found subtle and not so subtle differences.

let me know which letters (A through E) you want more close ups of.  I parted out many 67-69 Camaros, so not sure what I have. Last one E, might be Pontiac?

I also may have original insulation clips, but not sure about repros.

I also could not load the pic.  Says it is too large (it's 12.2KB, well below the 200KB limit) or server too too long to upload.

Your attachment couldn't be saved. This might happen because it took too long to upload or the file is bigger than the server will allow.

Please consult your server administrator for more information.

We are having issues with the site and uploading pics.

Hopefully fixed soon.

I guess that explains why the "numbers decode" section of CRGH  is getting a 404 error.

OK here is 67 hood side rubber if I'm not mistaken as I removed it a long time ago.

I found pics of an NOS 68-69 bumper.

Yours shows with D seems to be an original 67 type.  Can you take some closer up pics of that? And try to keep the size as close to 200 kb as possible without going over.

Are they the 67 or 68/69 type?  If possible email pics to me at bcm66@cox.net.   Thank you.

I am unsure which they are. 68/69 I assume. Sent to address.
Hopefully you received the email. I've been having email issues lately.

The used one I posted above came off my original 03D 67 fender IIRC.

The single one you posted seems to be the 68/69 version. I need to check to see if I can find the changeover date.

D in the pic with five bumpers seems to be the 67 type.

I need to see if my car or the extra fender I have still include any originals.

When the 67s were discontinued I believe the 68/69 type became the service part.

If you could take a pic of A and D in the same image that would be good.

Here is my pic

Send me some close up pics of D or post them here. That is the 67 type. Thanks!

I have a believed original 67 SS hood that I will try and dig out in the next couple of days and get pictures, could you PM an email address to send them to or would you rather me just post them on the forum?
