Is my BB hood original ?
I bought my 65 coupe back in 1985. The previous owner had it a handful of years and didn't change anything. It has a BB 427 hood. Is there a way I can tell if it is an original hood from 67 or an aftermarket ?

With two hood support brackets I would say that is one of your better repro hoods
