I'm about ready to install the hood emblems on my 1953 GMC and am wondering if it is best to use a rubber washer on the inside under the screw or just a metal washer, any ideas?

Whichever you decide....use loctite.

Since the hood emblems dont' have to be torqued extremely tight why not use a neoprene washer? Ace Hardware...and like builder says, a touch of maybe blue loctite.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
