I need some outside input on this matter. I have to decide to put on the bowtie on my hood (69-70 style). I bought a cowl induction Goodmark hood. The thing is, I like the bowtie emblem, but it might look out of place. I have a brand new grille, the body has been slightly modified, rollpan, shaved antenna, molding holes filled, etc. Someone posted pics of a truck that had a cowl hood and was beige in color that was missing the GMC letters, looked really good. I'm not sure, what's your opinion.
Thanx -Ryan
P.S. If I don't use the bowtie I'll sell it. It's GM NOS, $40 including shipping.

I like them on, but sounds like yours might be more in line with the modified look by leaving it off.
