well here is an option for ya how about fiberglass? www.usbody.com sells fiberglass replacement parts for these trucks (no rust) a hood is $399 plus shipping but that is perfectly straight absoulutly no rust and a quick sanding away from being painted and installed.

Fritolay,
Thanks for the tip on the website for USBody.com. I always wondered if anyone made a fiberglass cab for our trucks.

Anybody know if the hood from a '71 will fit on a '69? I'm guessing yes, just wanna be sure myself...

Hoods from '67 thru '72 are the same.
You'll notice a few trim differences between the '71 and '69. The '71 has an extra trim piece across the front lip that the '69 doesn't have. Your '69 grille will look different with that extra trim above running across the hood, can't say if it looks better or worse. Also, the F O R D letters on the '71 are larger and have a pebble finish while the '69 letters are smaller and have horizontal grooves, no biggie.
