These are the hole measuremnts taken off the outside of my 47 convertible deck/trunk lid for mounting the Ford emblem.
All measurements are to the center of the hole in inches starting from the left (drivers) side.
The first 3 measurements are from the top lip down to hole:
left hole - 24 1/8 , center hole - 24 3/8 , right hole - 24 1/4 .
The next 3 measurments are from the left side of the lid thru the center of all three holes:
left hole - 13 1/2 , center hole - 23 3/8 , right hole - 34 3/16.

Hope this helps

There were only 2 studs on my emblem which had been poorly repaired before I got the car , one broke off this summer. I understand this is a problem with these emblems?
Any suggestions on a good way to repair?
