Does anyone know the length & width of a 1970 chevelle hood?
I need to pick one up this weekend, but need to know if it will fit in the back of my SUV.
Thanks,
Lance

They measure about 56-1/2 x 66-1/2. It might be a pretty tight squeeze in an SUV.

If I were you, I would go by the nearest upholstery shop in town. One that does couches, not auto interior. Ask if they have any seat cushion foam that they would sell you, or scraps. It's about 5-7 inches thick. Put a big piece underneath the hood and strap that booger to the roof. It's not going anywhere. Put some foam ontop too. So you don't warp it or dent it with the straps.

Drive it like you stole it everytime, for tomorrow may never come.
And on the 7th day god said let there be an engine who's legendary brute force will never be matched, and loe the Chevrolet big block was born.
It's amazing, after all this time she still runs.
