nice hood! plus all your parts look rust free.
looks like you are missing one of the bumper plates that slides into the hood as a reinforcement when shut. have some if lost.
Thanks Joel, I never noticed the plate, I wonder if it fell off at the dipper. I'll take a look at some pre dip pictures and see if it was there. I'll take you up on a plate next time we exchange parts. Did find a couple small holes on the lower back of the fenders, I'll have too do a bit of metal work on those spots.
