Re: 1958 SWB C4 Fleetside - NZ Build

So I have been working on the hood mounts and hood hinges and have struck a problem and come up with a solution I think.

Lets start with the YOUTUBE VIDEO here and then the description and images below.

--------------------

As I have a 55-57 cab on my 58 Apache I knew about the differences between the hood mounts at the firewall. My hood never fit right as i previous slotted some already modified 58 hinges to get them to fit better (but not enough i guess)

So I bought some Eddie Motorsport Hinges which look friken awesome however there is an issue.

The 55-57 hinges have a different mount at the hood itself, they are closer together and offset (white hood) when compared to the 58-59 which are wider and inline (black hood).
