    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? 5CC06277-564C-4E8B-9E2B-7DBB5CFE29D1.jpeg

    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.

    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 .

    Here is one of my Model A's. We cut down local trees and made boards then built the truck.

    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.
