Hood Rattles (it's pissing me off)
Hey there, My hood seems to rattle loudly when i go over bumps in the road. Does anyone else experience this? I think I know where it's coming from but wanted to ask you guys how you fixed it. Here is a pic of where I've traced the noise from. Thanks in advance for the help

The 67-72's used anti-rattle foam/rubber between the frame and outer hood skin, not sure if the earlier years used that????

I can't find any for an earlier truck. I'm almost thinking of filling it with that expando foam.

Most often its the two long ones in the center of the hood.
