Right before the Lounge died someone was posting about parting out a C60. One of my hood hinge springs is broken and it is a bear on my back to lift the hood. Who was that with the truck? You mentioned I could get one of the springs out of your truck.

Wouldn't one from a pick-up fit? They should be easy to find locally,

It had been an offer for a free part. What the Stovebolt is all about. I would contact the person direct if I remembered which member it was. It was in the Lounge, but, you know...not very searchable?

I thought a pickup spring would be the same but had been told the C60 has a bigger hood?

Tony,
I could swear I saw a C60, not a LCF, with a pick-up hood on it somewhere on the 'net. I drive a 64 C10 everyday and could easily go out and take a few measurements to verify if you would like. I would put them on as a pair if it does work out though. If you were closer, I would give as many as you would like,
Scott

The Hoods R The Same on the C60 as any other C or K series truck. I used a Pick up hood on the 1966 C60 Tow Truck I had.

I thought they were too, but when I posted before about my broken spring people were saying they are not the same. Man those years pickup trucks had big hoods. I guess I will look for a regular spring.
Thanks
