I have got a '31 five-window on deuce rails. I was wanting to change the look a lil. I have heard rumors that '29 hoods are 29 in., '30 hoods are 30 in., and '31 hoods are 31in. Is there any truth to this? I have what a guy told me was a '30 hood and its 30.5 in. long, if a '31 hood is 31.5 in long, that would be perfect but the '30 hood is just a lil short. Thanks for any help. Hammer Hank.
28-29 = 27 3/4" 30-31 = 31 5/8" 32 = 32" My 31 on 32 rails roadster's hood is 32 3/8". All hoods measured on top down the center. Your hood length may differ if you've set your body in a different location than what I did. Wheelbase on my car is 105". The A body's rear wheelwell is centered directly over the rear axle.
