Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 208 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2004 Posts: 208 | I have a 1956 Pickup with an Apache hood. The hood doesn't latch, It doesn't seem to line up right. The guy I bought the pickup from kept it closed with a bungee cord. Is there a way to make it work? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | no luck, the shape of the 58/9 hood is different than the 5-7 hood, will never fit, the side curves suit the different fender shapes

I'll keep a slow eye out in the parts wanted section...
Give me ambiguity
or give me something else
