Fitment yes.

IIRC, 67s have a different underhood bracing pattern. And later models have holes for the hood lip moulding.

Go get it.

On the 70-72 hoods, in addition to the holes for the chrome strip, the holes for the F-O-R-D letters are spaced out wider as the letters are bigger.

But the mounting holes that the hood attaches to the Hood Hinges are the same, Right? Not to worried about the FORD emblems and if they are right just if it will bolt down and physically be the same size hood. This hood is rust free and came off a truck that was completely Restored and I am looking at the doors as well. Mine are great doors but the guy that had it drilled a bunch of holes in the door trying to mount a mirror that didn't actually go on the truck.
Thanks for the info.

That clears up a lot of my Questions. This is a 68 Hood so I think Im Golden on getting this for my Truck. Its as close to perfect as you would ever find a hood. ZERO Rust... Thanks...

I like the 68-69 hoods because of the holes on the underneath side. I keep spare hoses and belts in there.

Yes I had a '72 hood on my '68 Custom Cab and it fit just fine.
