    deluxe hood bracket

    Hi everyone, new to the forum, but I've been restoring my 1965 SIIa 109SW for about 10 years.......about 98% done.

    Having difficulty locating a deluxe hood bracket for my LR. This is the bracket that holds the striker pin/spring to the hood.

    Does anyone have any ideas where I can find this? Any help would be greatly appreciated !

    See photo...

    Thanks
    Marty

      That listing says "for flat bonnet." Presumably there is a different p/n for the deluxe bonnet?

        Nope, same part. I looked it up in my old 2A parts manual. Diagram shows same part as in the above pic with that part number.
        My deluxe bonnet has a nut welded on the frame. Simple, elegant.

            They use different parts. The plate for the deluxe bonnet is part number 330132.

              If RN doesn't have one or if they can't get one try Ike Goss at Pangolin 4X4.

                    Craddocks has one for the deluxe bonnet and one for the flat bonnet.

                    Now I'm 98.1% done with the project.!
