Default 1968 Hood insulation....

Hello, I was wondering where I can get the hood insulation for my 1968? I see glue on the inside of the hood so I know it had some at some point. Maybe a custom one that has the corvette flags or something? Thank you all

Hi c,
I believe only 69 cars had hood insulation in the 68-72 year cars. It was a stiff piece that was held on with clips, not glue, and appeared sporadically. The vendors sell it but it's plain, not fancy.
It sounds like you're seeing the remains of something a former owner installed.
Regards,
Alan
