Hood Front Edge Repair Panel - 53-56 F100 F250

$79.99

1953-56 Ford F100 and F250 hood front edge repair panel. Heavy gauge steel with precision shapes, curves and cutouts for accurate fit; EDP coated against oxidation.

  • Replaces the edge; not the hood - section in the rotted leading edge instead of hunting a straight used hood.
  • Stamped curves and cutouts - the crown and the cutouts are formed in; you are not shaping them by hand.
  • Heavy gauge steel - strength where the hood takes its knocks and its latch load.
  • EDP coated - it holds through cutting; fitting and welding without surface rust.
  • A true gap - a correct edge is what makes the hood to grille gap even down the whole front.

Install Level: Advanced

Repair panel for the hood front edge only; not a complete hood.

SKU: 302-4553-2
