    Hi everyone!

    I have a question (or two) - I recently found a 1970 Grand Sport Hood that I would like to put on my 1971 Skylark. Will the hood fit on my Skylark with no problems? I have an extra 1971 hood lip with the chrome - I assume that I can exhange it with the 1970 hood lip (it is pitted). Also, there are five spots on the hood with surface rust - what would be the best way to remove the rust. Thanks in advance for any answers and Happy Fourth of July!!!

    The hood lip moldings are not the same but I think they will bolt up. The hoods are not identical. 71 has a hood spring in the center and the ram air grille as well as the main grille are different.

    I would sand until smooth and prime if it is surface rust.
