Dear Guys, I did the search but didn't find it. I know '68 and '69 hoods and hinges were drilled to different lengths for mounting. I also have a set of hinges that look like they will work. Did the 1968 hinges have a right angle bend in them that bolts to the cowl for extra strength, otherwise, I've got the hinges off my old 76 Cutlass. Thanks R.B.

I do not believe the 68-69 hinges have that extra bend....Shawn

rb,

The answer to that is no. The 68-69 hinges did not have a right angle bend that bolts to the cowl.

Thanks, maybe the hinges I have will be all right. I got a lotta parts around here. I'll have to start labelling them or hire a librarian.
