C2: Hood support hinge washer config

[Gary B.]

Can someone tell me which of these two washer designs looks more correct compared to an original C2 hood support washer?

Thanks,

Gary

Hi Gary,

Picture #1 reminds me of the rivet/washer asm. on NOS hood hinges, it's close, but not quite the same as original. Picture #2 looks like the original to me. Do they both have "16077" and "ATWOOD Rockford ILL"?

Yes, both have 16077 and Rockford, ILL (& yes, you are correct, there are two Ls).

I agree with Scott.

Here is a picture of what I believe is an original off my 66 .

In that case, could both styles be TFP?

MY records are not so good, but I think you are correct the one in the first image is an NOS item that I sold years ago. It could be a case where the NOS service replacement part is simply configured different from the original production part.

What's the correct plating on this hood support for 1963?
