Please help with identification
I have an incomplete 71 roadrunner that I am just starting on. The hood is missing and I would prefer an original to a repro. I had the same year car in 1980's but lost it during my military career. I found this hood on craigslist but it doesn't look correct. Notice the double crease between the decal inserts. I recalled it being smooth and internet photos seem to confirm this. This hood is 21 hours from me and I need it to be correct before I commit. Thanks to anyone who tries to help me on this.

Re: Please help with identification
The sort of "T" shaped area (sideways in the pick) looks like it is raised. That would be incorrect. Otherwise, it looks about right. Maybe it's been customized or otherwise altered, or maybe some kind of paint effect? Ask the seller some questions.

Re: Please help with identification
pic is deceiving, I'd ask a pic from the front looking down the hood, or just ask if that part is raised
