Yes - Acsco was the manufacturer of the originals....also used on Shelby Mustangs in 1969 I think. Still in business in Burbank.

You used to be able to buy them from Tony D. Branda Shelby and Mustang Parts but the last ones I saw were Chineseum! The ANSCO hood latches were also used on the 69 and 70 Shelby Mustangs.
