Crosley pickup hood latch replacement available?

[Greg shuster]

Hi, I am just finishing the paint work after a complete mechanical restoration in my 1951 Crosley pickup. The hood latch is a pin style and is missing the receiving end piece of the latch. I believe all Crosley cars and trucks used the same hood latch system. I have seen similar style universal latches as some Fords in the 1950s also had similar pin style hood latches. Has anyone had this issue and if so how did you resolve this?

The hood latch is the same throughout the Crosley line of cars and trucks from 1949-1952.  What part do you need?
