h/o hood or fake?

[Evan11]

Hey, can anyone tell for certain if this or a h/o hood or something put together? I know the h/o had the black trim up through the cowl as this one does. Thanks in advance.

Looks like an H/O hood to me

Awesome. Anyone else have an opinion?

I don't see any black trim, looks to be from an '84.
For $75 I wouldn't look twice, better grab it before I do :lol:

Believe it or not, they did have a different part number for an "H/O hood" vs. a regular Cutlass hood. The only way to REALLY tell if it's been replaced by a regular Cutlass hood is by looking underneath the hood with the insulator out of the way. On H/O hoods, the center trim mount hole located directly under the scoop area, that would hold the hood strip on to the hood on a normal Cutlass, would be unpunched. There's the punched hole at the very front of the scoop, then it skips the one underneath the scoop.

Hope that made sense.
