I just ordered a hood for my 69 Cutlass from Rob at Fiberconcepts. So I will be needing a pair of lightweight hood springs and a pair of hood fastners. Looking to see if anyone had some laying around before I ordered new.

He also said I need a 70 hood latch?

 

i have a very nice set of home made stainless steal hood pins and original hold down brackets if you would be interested in them.

 

I brought my springs from the parts place. I think they run for around $39 plus a few extra for shipping.

 

The ones from The Parts Place seem to be the best thing out there right now.If you can find a 78-80's Delta,with the aluminum hood,those springs will work pretty good.However,the Deltas with teh aluminum hoods are not real common,and I think they were the Canadian-built cars that had them.

 

Got everything I needed! Thanks

 

Let us know how it turns out.
I want to do a ram air on my 69 442.

 

There are at least 2 guys on this site that have changed over their 69's to a 70 OAI hood. It looks so incredible you wonder why Olds didn't make that hood sooner. Looks something like this.

 

Thanks for the post Allan. Your right they should
have done it.

I remembered who one of the guys with the 70 hood on the 69 is. Here's his PM messaging address if you want to compare notes with him (69CutlassAlex)
