I have a customers 1946 Chevrolet Truck in my shop and it is missing the piece that holds the front Hood hinge rod and bolts to the top of the upper grill pan. I guess it would be the front hood mounting bracket? I need to help this guy out and see if I can find one but Im not sure what to call it? Thanks for any direction or help.

If it is the bull nose that fits between the front hood halves and is held on with two bolts on top of the radiator support and two more bolts at the front on top of the grille I have 1 in good shape.

One other point. Make sure there is a 1 inch protrusion from the front of the hinge for it to fit into the "bull nose" or you will need a new hinge as well.
