Hood bumpers
I am in the middle of getting my 1957 Thunderbird ready for paint.I am working on the hood gaps now,and I need some information.
My car was pretty rough when I started out, and many things needed to be corrected. I bought new hood bumpers, and there are four bumpers in the bag. I only see 2 holes where these bumpers might go. Both holes are 20 1/2 inches from the rear of the hood area where the hood pad goes. There were numerous other holes that were in the same channel that had been welded up and crudely ground down, but I do not see two that look even. I have taken a lot of time to clean this area up and that may be working against me. Could a fellow 1957 Bird owner perhaps measure theirs and let me know what the proper measurements are ? I need to install the bumpers in order to set the hood gaps. Thanks |
