Our grade B hoods are 100% rust free with minor damage to the top side. Hoods are shipped via www.forwardair.com so check their site for the nearest location as you will have to go to the terminal to pick it up.
*Something to Consider - 1971-73 hoods are all the same, except 1973 hoods are drilled for the 1973 only Mercury script. The 1973 Mercury script isn't reproduced, and we seldom have nice used emblems to sell. We ask you to consider the 1971-72 hood which allows this reproduction Mercury script.
