Im looking for a used 1965 ranchero hood if anyone has one or knows how to fix one as the hood wasnt latched when i was driving and it popped up and some what bent the upper LH/RH corners a bit, I'm thinking I can take it off and with some work get them straighten back up but not sure.


thanks,
Moe

Moe,

You may want to contact this guy, whose name is Mark, and see if he has a decent hood. The type of damage you have incurred will be a really hard fix. This stretching and buckling of steel will not straighten without separating the skin from the lower structure and real finesse at massaging it all back again. Best to cut your losses and get a decent replacement. They're out there.
