Re: opions needed...hood letters or no
I thought they were and dont under stand why the M doesnt fit. I am trying to fit it using letters from a 68 GMC hood. All the repop letters are listed as 68-72 so i thought they were the same. I am looking in the assembly manual now and the drill holes for 68 is different than the 69-72. 68 M has straight across pins. The 69-72 M holes are a off set. So original 68 letters will not fit 69-72 hood.
Why are the repop letters listed as 68-72 then?
