Does anyone have a picture of the hood lace installation on a 46 that fits under the hood on the front and rear cowl. I have the molded rubber from Jim Carter part number FP116 and the hood lace retainer clips. http://secure.oldchevytrucks.com/HOOD-LACE-RUBBER-42-46/productinfo/FP116/The molded rubber has a high side or v shape and I am not sure if that side goes into the grove that runs along the cowl because the picture is not very clear. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 457 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2011 Posts: 457 | Not sure if my '40 is the same, but I snapped a pic of the cowl side. On mine the front of the hood rests on rubber buttons, not lacing (or stripping.) Don't know how to post it here, but check first pic on my album below. Hope this helps.
