How can one verify that a Ford 8n hood is original?
1, some of the repops are thin metal.
2, look for embossed script.
3, does the hood really look 66 years old. look at rolled edges and screw holes for signs of dotted rust, etc.
Most (if not all) N's were shipped without lights. The lighting kit was a dealer installed option. My 1950 came with original tin - It still had the knock out plugs in the dog legs.
