1940 110 hood weatherstrip/seal source?

I'm well into the refresh of my tired '40; engine is back in and I'm in the midst of repairing cracked, paper thin fenders, et.al.

I need to find a source for the cloth-type weatherstripping that's secured with the small brass split-pins.

Any advice?

Just search for hood lace. Pretty common amongst all old cars of the period and not Packard specific.

You'll need either split rivets or ring shanked nails to install.

Here is the hood lace installed on my '37.
