1952 Mercury hood ideas

Thanks for replying.
I have studied various pictures from ebay and others.
The hoods seem to match, however, when I found a Lincoln hood on ebay, I called the seller and asked for measurements to compare to my Mercury hood.
The numbers were close but no cigar!
I'd like to measure a Lincoln hood if I could find one or see where a Lincoln hood had been used on a Mercury.
I don't want to spend money for a Lincoln hood and find it won't work.
I'll keep trying.
Thanks,

Big Shift

I guess that is why I have never seen it done!
