I have a 69, its not an SS, its a malibu, but i was wondering if a SS hood will fit on my chevelle.

also i was wondering if anyone new of a place where i could get an aftermarket hood for my 69. i dont really want fiblerglass, but i want something kinda different than a regular cowl hood. please help if you can, thanks

Yup, it`ll fit. The hoods are identical other than the two humps.

Be careful that you don't get a '68 hood without the hinges. The '68-69 hoods are pretty much identical except for hinge-to-hood bolt spacing (wider on '69). You can use a '68 hood on a '69 with '68 hinges.
