1969 Coronet Superbee Hood

[yatesjr]

I bought this car awhile back and have never seen another Superbee with this type of hood. It could just be my ignorance of the different hoods they produced. Can anyone tell me if it’s the real hood or a repop that was made? I’ve never seen one with a fake hood scoop in the middle. The lines all match perfectly with the body. It is a WM21 code car.

My guess it's and early 69 model. I've seen other 69 superbee models with this 68 yr style hood.

Your car looks restored, are you sure it's the original hood? My 68 R/T

This is standard hood for 68-69 superbees

Yep. A bulge hood. I have always liked them. It's a stylish look.

No I do not know if it’s the original hood. I am thinking it is not. It may be a 68 R/T hood since yours has it.

As was already mentioned that is the standard hood for 68-69 super bee.

As previously stated, this was the 1968/69 standard R/T, Super Bee Hood. The twin scoop Ramcharger hood was optional in 1969/70.

How to tell the difference between a 68 and 69 bulge hood.
A 68 hood does not have the provision on the passenger side to attach a Ramcharger set up. A 69 does.
