Where to find a hood latch & plate for a '78 C10?
« on: September 09, 2022, 01:59:24 pm »
Hello, I'm looking for this plate with latch.  It fits 77-80 trucks with inside hood release only.  Anyone know where to find one?  I posted a pic, Thanks.    I'm in the 76069 area, East Mckinney,Tx.

I believe the only piece that's not reproduced is the striker otherwise used search. Although making the striker would be pretty easy.

Thanks for the reply.  I work at a fab shop  but would rather  buy a good used one.  Especially with not having dimensions.

The plate is available but is prob thinner than the original.  But I may not have a choice.  Hopefully someone is parting out a truck with the plate and striker.
