Hi Kelly,
A deluxe hood was standard equipment on all station wagon models, so if your truck has the double skin "safari" hard top then yes its correct for your truck. However, being a Land Rover you could order a basic model and request a deluxe dished bonnet so its hard to say what's correct! I'm of the mindset that its your truck so unless your going for a full concours restoration do what you want and have fun.

Thanks Matt,
My sentiments exactly. I guess if I find one at the right price, I may buy it.
