Hood pin replacement
Not an A-Body, but the concept works on any car.
Tired of looking at cheap hood pins on my 68 Satellite, so ordered a pair of 2.5" Epman Quick Latches to replace. Had to grind a little fiberglass underneath hood for mounting bezels, but they look WAY cleaner than old pins. Easy to install since holes and old pins already there to line things up.
Best part, $32 for the pair shipped to my door from DHGate.com. Yea, they are made in China, but only place I could find 2.5" diameter to cover screw holes from pin bezels. Work like a charm!
