Help...
It started some time back when we took apart the side hood panel latches to get all (or most) of the rust off.
In doing so, I think we had some help and the small brackets that hold the rotating rod to the hood side panel are now missing. See the red areas of the following Picture http://i1296.photobucket.com/albums/ag13/catfish_fry/HoodLatch_zpsefg3dum4.jpg
We plan on making new brackets and fastening with SST screws but it would most helpful if someone could measure the distance from the inner side hood surface to the center (or side of rod closest to the hood and post that. This will allow us to make the brackets with the proper space in there.

Thank You Very Much
