Hi guys! I’m trying to find the panel on the inside of the hood, the panel that the hock attaches to. Picture to easily understand what I mean what is the name of this part? And where can I by it? Or do you have one that you don’t need and are willing to send all the way to Sweden?
I don't have one, but it would be easier to find the right part if you specified make (although it looks like a Chevy, not a GMC) and year.
Do a search for "Dead Zone Truck Parts" in Arizona and speak with Joe. He has MANY AD truck parts and I'm sure does international sales.
Try the lead in post # 4...... I wish I could be of help . Some years back I was given a '47 Advance Design hood, no one anted it, not for FREE . I held onto it a couple years then gave it to the local scrap guy who's always asking me for things .
I'd call that part the 'hood latch slam panel' DeadZone Truckin is Joe Mendola in Tucson. I've bought quite a few parts from him over the years - super-knowledgeable, he has everything and his prices are fair. He was on this forum earlier this month Look for a thread here called "48 sunvisor" and you'll find his recent posts. PM him. The last email I had for him was - Mothertruckeraz@aol.com - but I haven't had much luck reaching him there, but its been a while.
Be aware he's a busy man and sometimes takes a while or more than one query but he'll have what you need .
I just love helping hands . This morning I mailed a box of 25 + 'A; Model Ford books including originals to Australia ~ my friend there bought his first 'A' Model recently...
I don't know about my skills but it was a lot of fun and I ended up with a truck that I will never get rid of. I use it with my grandaughter to sell her honey on the roadsides.
