Topic: 48 merc hood

  The hood was off the car when I got it and now I know why. The hinges and support arms are missing and the bolts holding them are broke off. I think I have the bolts drilled out and threaded and can purchase hinges and supports. Here now is the real problem, The bracket on the right side inside of the hood where the support arm bolts is also broke off and the on on the left is bent. I can't seem to find anything about them or even a part number if there is one. I am up here in the Black Hills of SD and parts are not available, and I don't even know where there is one I could look at. Any help would be great

thanks

  What has worked for me in the past, is to place an ad in the parts wanted section of this website. The people in this club are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Someone will probably be able to provide the information and parts you need to get your hood properly installed.
