Can anyone verify that there was a factory hood lip chrome piece on these cars? I am not finding one in the parts manual but my hood has holes for something along the hood.

Not that I know of. Power-Bulge? Holes allow the leading edge fill panel install for 69's maybe.Can anyone verify that there was a factory hood lip chrome piece on these cars? I am not finding one in the parts manual but my hood has holes for something along the hood.

Jim,
The 68' did not require the filler piece on the hood lip but the 69' did. Not sure if the 68' hood had the holes for the filler (I wouldn't think so) it's possible that it has a 69' hood on it.
If you look at the top of the grille on the 68' and 69' you can see the differences in them.
My understanding is that that the 68-69 Power Bulge hood top skins are the same. The 69's got the filler panel on the leading edge. The curve is the fill panel part, hood is a straight line edge.Because they were sort of two independent questions at first. It started as "Where can I find one" to "Did they even come on '68s". It looks like '68 and '69 hoods are different. Mine is straight across the bottom. Yours looks curved on near the headlights.

Yes the 68' and 69' bulge hoods are the same with exception of the holes for the filler panel in the 69' hoodMy understanding is that that the 68-69 Power Bulge hood top skins are the same.
