after a few hours of wet sanding I think I have my hood number
20908270
my ser# is 59697
dod 3/52
is this believable, or not? I know nothing about M series hood numbers
I went through 2 sets to get to the bottom layer

Steve,
Pretty darn close. I have a Mar 52 MC59319 with an original hood number of 20908058 and a Mar 52 MC59556 with 20908160.

Sounds like the originals to me! I wish my 'a1 would've had the numbers.
