The hood from a 56 or 57 will fit on a 55 but I don't believe the 58 or
59 will do so. I think there are issues with the mounting hinges (I know
the hinges are different) and I don't believe it will lay against the
earlier fenders properly.
I sold an extra hood years ago for 40 bucks but I had to get rid of it
so I took a loss.
