Good Day Packrds,

I am working on finding the pieces I need to get the hood operational.

I Do not have the bracket and rods that run down the middle of the hood.

I have 46 1/8 “ inches between the center holes where the brackets get mounted to the front of the hood and the firewall



I have both sides of the hoods
I have two latches,
I have the brackets and hardware that goes from the latch up and I have the rods that go on the outside of the hood

Also looks like I’m going to need some kind of metal trim piece

Cover everything and make it look finished

Please

i will supply the short trim piece after the back of the hood and the ornament. You need the center hood stainless, I definitely do NOT have.
As for the pivot, i think you can remove the ball studs and use your rod with a pin clip? i will look again for the vertical rod....

Have found a friend with the center hood stainless moulding...call me tomorrow...

The trim piece is the actual hinge and of course, there are different ones depending on model. Is yours a 110?

Wow Flackmaster
you are batting a thousand.

Thank you so much


Voicemail, you left me, but then it got erased somehow

Can you please call me or text me so I can lock your number in?

Great evening

Yes it is a 110

I have one from a 120 with the open end having gotten damaged so could easily be cut down to the shorter 110 length. I don't know if the hood ornament holes are the same, though, as the car it was from was a 1901A so had a senior ornament. Surely you can fine one for your car without resorting to cutting a longer one but I would love to know the length of a 110's and the ornament holes' spacing so that I can fix this one for 110 use.
