hey guys,

I'm after one of these plastic bonnet hooks in good condition. If you have two i'll grab them both.

Let me know what you have,
cheers.

I dont have any but i'm sure that old cruisers used this type of thing for a bonnet lock. Also some trucks use them to keep the cab locked down so if you get really stuck you could try chase something from them.

I have about 6 of those plastic bits actually :D (None for sale, thats just enough, and I have no spares).

Its the steel T bars I am lacking.... Only 1 single good one, and a pair of plastic ones. Out of 8* LJ's :roll: :lol:

If your not in a rush (easter weekend and all), I could go and check the one at a wrecker near me. I'm sure I saw the hooks and catch's on it.

Take the whole car! That poor thing need to be saved!

Those little tabs can't be too hard to make, grab a sheet of abs plastic from clark rubber and a hair dryer and go for it! Would be even easier to do in metal. 8)

Mate I can make mould from just about anything. Happy to look at them at least. Remember whatever I am given will be reproduced 10000% the same, so if the part I get has any marking or scratches etc that will show on the mould and will show on the parts. :-)
Sorry for the hijack :-(
I'll go sit in the corner again now :-)
