hi - i have a plymouth hood in my garage that's been there for 12 years or more and would like to know more about it - it's orange - if you are looking at it from the front, it has an emblem on the right side near the top that says plymouth. can anyone help me to find out what car this is from or give me ideas on how to find out? thanks
 
hi - thank you for the reply - no, it has no stripes on it. i would like to eventually sell this once i find out it's value. is there a book out there that describes these things - or, if i take the measurements, would that help? believe this or not, i don't own a camera, but i could have my daughter perhaps come over and digitally send one with my message so people can give me a better idea - my computer is old and i have no printer or scanner or anything - like these old cars, i'm still living in the past - i like to keep it this way because i miss the old days.
 
everyones young here! did you see you're a JUNIOR member? you could try EBAYMOTORS.COM click on more, then go to the plymouth section. i'd try roadrunners first and see if that matches your hood. also look for a local MOPAR club in your area and contact the president. thats probably your best option as its hopefully local. good luk
 
Any scoops or vents on it ? 70-74 Barracudas also had a Plymouth emblem on the driverside.
 
Or this. pehaps a duster as well

yes, this looks more like it. this hood has been in the garage since i moved in 12 years ago - someone just left it here. i really have no interest in it at all except that my new landlords want to start throwing out all the things that have accumulated from the old landlords over the years and if i don't save this hood, it's going to end up at the dump because these new landlords are super yuppie types and have no respect for anything like this hood. so, i may as well find out what it's worth, make a little money, and make someone else happy. it has no scoops on it and i don't think it's worth much; one of my friends (who happens to be a woman) told me it may be from a duster or a valiant. i have an old 35 millemeter camera and i'm going to take some pictures after i put it out on the lawn - the film is black and white and takes awhile to process, but if you would be interested in taking a look at it for me, send me your postal address. i would sure appreciate it. i like old cars and i remember when my brother would race his hemi mustangs and make me go along and put me in the backseat and i would be afraid, but i also had alot of fun. when i was 12, my parents moved us out to the country in the middle of nowhere, and we met these guys who also had mustangs - we couldn't believe it - we thought after we left the city and the big drag strips, it was all over with, but these guys were really into their cars! we would race on the windy country roads; had a great time. then, my brother got married and it was kind of over with - everyone started driving trans ams and the muscle car era ended it's days as it once was. now i just drive some ratty 89 toyota and i'm in the city, so i can take the bus, get rides from friends, or ride the bus. it really dosen't matter to me. thank you for reading this.
 
If i remember right, from what i have read in places, some of the Racers used to put 392 HEMIs in to early stangs.
