What exactly are you looking for? I converted my 70 hood to RAM air and I think I still have the locking mechanism if that is what your looking for

 

The optional hood lock has a specific hood latch with a small squarish cover on the back of it. The cover is thin sheet metal & is only found with the locking latch. The locking latch also takes a special rod that connects it to the hood release T handle.

 

the locking hood option has a cover that goes over the hood latch on the bottom side of the radiator support in the area were the hood release rod would go. do u still have the hood latch lock assemble. I managed to download a picture off of e-bay
thanks ray

 

there is one on ebay now, or on here actually. I just saw it listed Sunday... can't remember where.

oh I think you just edited original post saying you just missed one, but here is the link I was thinking of

If I could get my hands on one I'd make one for you Norm. I think I have one around here but it's likely BURIED inside a box of other beadblasted/waiting-to-replate parts and it goes with a locking setup for a car here. May be able to borrow one from a customer here as well for a "model" to follow.

In the meantime keep looking and I'll see what I can come up with here.

 

thanks Patton, like u if I had an old one to trace a pattern off of I could also make one. maybe you could start making them to sell. thank you for trying to help me get something, keep in touch.
thanks ray

 

I should be able to put my hands on a cover in the next week or so. I'll watch your thread and contact you when that happens. I was going to say the same thing "you should make one yourself" as it's obvious you have the ability. Then I remembered.....you would need something to follow as a model/guide so that comment, on my part, wouldn't have made too much sense!

 

Here is a picture.

 

thanks patton your a good guy looking forward to hear from u. I will send u a first and second design tire tag
thanks again ray

 

still in need of a hood cover
thanks ray

 

Ray,
PMs are full, I have more pix for you.

 

Here's another pic of one

 

is this the one u have that is buried

 

Yes - it's unburied now. Does Scott/Oldpackrat have one?? I saw where he said he had some pics for you in his posting above.

 

no patton it is some other parts that I am getting from him. if u would be willing to loan me the one u have to make myself one I would pay u for your trouble to let me borrow it.
thanks ray

 

I'll grab some metal and give it a shot here.....already made a "pattern" from it and want to see what the result is. Hang in there and I'll get back with you. Thanks

 

thanks looking forward to hear from you
thanks again RAY
