The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Hood-to-cowl hood lace on 41-46 help

Does anyone have any good pictures of the hood to cowl lace on their 41-46. I bought some from Jim Carter, but am not sure how it installs. Durring the body work, the holes were filled over. I have an idea where they go, but would like to see some pics before I drill a hole in the wrong spot. Thanks

Which one did you purchase? See link:

Let me know and I will see if I can get photos and measure for you.

I bought the 42-46 molded ruber.

Let me know if you don't get the pictures you need, my 41 is all exposed right now and I can get pictures of what ever you need. Dave

I'm heading to the truck today, I'll take pictures, let me knwow if you want them. Dave

I appreciate any help/pictures I can get!!

Hey Mark,
My camera died. I attempted to take photos, but need to purchase a new battery. Sorry, perhaps Dave can help with the photos? I did take measurements. From the top of the fender, (1st ) screw measures 1“. Taken from center-point of the lowest screw (#1) to the next screw (#2) is 11-½“. Moving up-towards the center of the hood to screw (#3), center-point to center-point is 8-½“, and then lastly from the 3rd screw to the 4th screw, (adjacent to the aft hood hold down) (#4) is 16-3/8 “. In reading your description, the holes were filled over. If you look under your dash, the holes should still be evident with extra filler protruding? If so, you can always use the original holes and from under the dash, back-drill from inside to outside for a perfect location of the original holes. Sorry again about my camera.
