What's the deal with 64 hood hinges, are they special? I am in need of the drivers side hinge and have been reluctant to purchase standard hinges (64-67) GM in fear of them not fitting. Everyone advertises 64 hinges, what's up?

Ed

I need also, if you find please post so I can get also.

Thanks,
Roger

ED, I think the 64 hood hindges will inter change with the early Chevy II. I will try and find the info and post it later. Bob J.

Bob,

I look forward to your reply :)

Fyi - my car just came out of San Jose, a nice and rust free project.

Dale is correct with the interchange. Reproduction hinges are due out any time I will post as soon as I can when they are out. I don't think folks understand how hard it is to restore/maintain a 64 Chevelle. Hood hinges are just one example of how many parts are specific to the car.

When I did my '64 the drivers side hood hinge was missing. I used a driver's side hinge from a '65 GTO and as I recall it was a bolt in.

Thanks to all for the clarification on this subject.

Hi when I replaced the hinges on my '64 about 15 years ago I used hinges off a '65 chevelle. They have a longer arm to support the hood. I had to drill a new front hole in the hinge arm so the holes in the hinges matched the threaded holes in the hood. they work fine and are still on the car. Dave
