1975 skylark new hood?

Hey guys, new to the fourm for posting but have been reading for awhile. I picked up a 1975 buick skylark awhile back and been putting the work into it. I am in current need of a new hood and cant seem to find any after market makers, or any donor cars for a 75 on craiglist or the junkyards. I was wondering will other year skylark hoods fit?
Thank you, any input is appriciated

 

I can't tell you if other model year hoods may fit, but try placing an ad in the Parts Wanted section for the 75 hood you need.

 

okay thank you, i did not even think of that. if anyone else know if a 77 hood will fit let me know, i found one in a junkyard but its 100$ shipping so i don't want to spend that kind of money on a guess.

 

if anyone knows where else i could find the answer let me know. i tried googling it and i cant seem to find a solid lead. or if anyone has a 77 hood that they want to give me ill try it out and let everyone know.

 

I believe the hoods are the same from 75-79 as long as long as it came off a Buick , The others ( omega nova and phoenix ) will fit but the lines built into the hood will not line up . On a different note I have a decent back bumper from a 76 that has rubber strip and bumperettes you can have ( I'm also in CT )

No kidding. I passed on buying this super clean hood off a 77 sedan, along with the front bumper, as I didn't want to sit on
them forever. The yard also did have a '79 and it also had a complete front clip I refrained from buying. I did buy the fenders, front extensions, and some grille attachment and other small parts off the '77 sedan. Some 75's may have been called Apollo's as the 73-74 nameplate badging was not immediately retired following introduction of the '75 Buick models.

 

Thank bob for the info! I'm going to try with the 77 hood, as for the bumper thanks for the offer but I'm not in need of one at the moment (knock on wood). bob do you know of anyone selling any hood? i tried the stafford swap meet but to no luck.

 

update, i still have not found a hood. the junkyard near me junked the whole car, but saved the rims

 

update- i found a 78 skylark good that looks like and measure like it will fit. i will update you once i have it on. have to find out why it wont steer straight now.ou:ou:ou:

 

Wild. Stafford Springs was my first swap meet I went to to sell - Fall 1987.
