Also wouldn't be surprised if all non braced hoods were used until exhausted in a running change.
And we don't really know when that happened , but you guys seem to be getting a better grip towards it. Good Luck
The '71 Formula hood had the AO Smith (Ionia, MI) label on it. I haven't looked for any on the '70's hood yet, but I imagine it too is an AO Smith product.
