The late N hoods had no trim eather, might be one of those.

Gee, then I would assume that my hood was not from a '68 as I was told  
but rather from '62 or '63. Do you happen to know the difference in  
length? I should measure the one I have. It has no obvious bend but  
who knows, these things are pretty old.
