Iam trying to ID this hood. I was told years ago it was a model t but now Iam not sure. I’ve tried multiple search’s but no exact matches yet. Dodge maybe? I figured this is the place to ask 😁 I will try to get some measurements tomorrow

Looks like it might be 30-31 Model A.

Hey that’s a step in the right direction! I don’t see the bead down the upper hood sides thou. The ones above the Louvers. But I looked at a 28 model A and it’s just flat like this one👌 Maybe a winner?

I think it is for a '28 - '29 Model A.

It appears to be an "early" 1928 Model A when compared to Rootlieb hoods based on the number of louvers, handles and hold-down brackets
