Re: Freddy's '52

Did a little treaking last after getting our garden planted. I had removed the original hood springs cause they seemed to be the culprit keeping the alignment off so I used the S10 rod to hold the hood up. I took the radiator mount off the top, unbolted the fabbed front mounts then pushed down on the front. Hood still lined up pretty good so I'll trim and re-weld my mounts.

Rootbeer, for the latch I took the original hood part off then took the S10 part and centered up the striker latch rod with the '52. Then drilled some holes and bolted it to the hood cross plate. I also lined up the latch plate with the hole on the '52 catch plate. I'll take some good pictures for you tonight.

Shannon, Thanks.....hope ya'll made it thru the storms the other night ok. I was thinking about ya'll.
