keiser31 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) You can see part of one in the upper right portion of this photo....this is a 1937, but I think the hood support (bonnet stay) may be similar.

countrytravler Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Is this what he is looking for? Factory or aftermarket? I only seen this setup on dodge trucks-39 and newer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
