Paul, what series is your car? I have a 1940 56S Coupe which has TWO hood latches, one on each side as the hood is two piece and opens from both sides toward the center. They are left and right specific. Do you know if the ones you need say "Super" or "Special" on them?

Also, are you looking for all the rods and brackets that go on a two piece hood or just the chrome pull handles that are visible on each side???

Let me know, I may be able to help. I know I have some extra pull handles, but I don't remember if they say Super or Special on them. I do not have any extra operating rods or linkage though and nothing for any other style hoods.

You can email me at fself@mail.utexas.edu if you want to pursue this.

Floyd
