Need 1932 67 series hood hardware

[chuckfmtexas]

I am in dire need of the hood hardware piece that holds down the hood hinge and bolts to the radiator shell. During a repair of my hood the piece was set aside in a shop and apparently lost such that I have been loaned a piece by another 32 Buick owner for a short time so I can have my car in a major event in downtown Fort Worth where the car will be featured inside the convention center as part of the event theme in second weekend of February.  

 

I have posted photos of the piece (prior to it being lost).  I have the bolts and piece with the threads that the missing piece bolts to.  I will place an ad in the For Sale/Wanted section but wanted to mention it in the Pre-War section.

 

Any help or suggestions are greatly apprreciated,

If you have your friends it looks to me like it could be easily copied if you can't find tan original one.

I do have someone looking at the possibility of manufacturing a new one and perhaps several more for others who might need this piece in the future but not sure how difficult it will be and how expensive.  I don't have a lot of choice because with the piece the hood cannot be secured to the car.

I do not know if this part matches yours or not ? Look at Mac's Ford under different years 1931 and 1932 as an example . They sell parts that Murray bodies used . Sometimes the older parts went on the newer cars .

If you get in a bind I can get it done for you, will need two weeks and you will have something that will work and is very close.
