Title: hood catch
Post by: mtwilsonboy on 2013-05-17 11:13
I need the safty catch for the hood on my 57 skyliner and the piece that bolts to the fender for the catch. Also I need the L catch for the latch on the firewall. If anybody has these in good shape for slae I would be interested. Thanks,

That could be a junkyard part. There are no good ones around you that have a mess of old cars?

There is an NOS "L" hook currently on Ebay for $15.  Search 1957 Ford hood.

Thanks for your responses. There are no yards around my area that I know of that have old fords. All the old cars in the junk yards either rusted or were crushed.

Are you in Southern California?  If you are there is a Pick n Pull in Monrovia that normally has 20-25 1950's cars.  No 57 Fords at the present but they do show up periodically.
