CA WTB: 58/59 Hood Latch - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**leddzepp** · 06-13-2011, 01:20 PM

I am looking for a hood latch (piece that bolts to the underside of the hood) for a 58 or 59 Apache. I do not need the latching mechanism, just the hood piece. Anyone? Thanks!

We might have one at the shop. I will check in the morning. If not we can come up with one this weekend, or the next time my partner gets to the country. $15.

Thank you! Let me know if you come up with one. Thanks, Scott

I just remembered, it is called a striker plate

**Wrenchbender Ret** · 06-21-2011, 06:16 PM

OK we have one. Its off a 55-56 but it looks the same as the one on my58.
Send me your E-mail address & I will give you the address to send money. It will be $17 with poastage. Or you can call my partner John at 816-584-0563. Between 9am &6pm.

It has to be from a 58/59 according to my dad. He says that there is a small difference in them. He is currently using one from a tri-5 and it does not work like it should so that is why I posted up a WTB ad here. Thank you for checking, I appreciate it.

OK. John will get one. He is going to the country this weekend & will bring it back.
