Clone = okay

Representing it as real, with fake Shelby tag = not cool

Not sure of the details of this car, but it does make beautiful music.

Absolutely beautiful!

Praying for a complete and speedy recovery Jim.

yes the part is correct re riveting is the way to go if you want it perfect. But hard to find people that do it concourse right. Any recommendations? Bob?

I wouldn't worry about the rivets unless extremely loose.  Instead of new rivets some times the rivets can be tightened . Just like with the hood hinges, restacking them by what ever means like a press ,air hammer etc. can help tighten a otherwise loose rivet up. You have to think outside the box and come up with a x pattern tooling or something that can be used to preserve the X pattern on the rivet during the restacking /tightening process. You also have to be concerned about a point of diminishing return given the labor cost involved given that the latches are still out there relatively available. I would find another before I considered replacing rivets given present availability but that is just me.

Great advice.  Thank you Bob.

I am looking for any recommendations where I could send the original hood latch for a 1967 GT500?  Any help is appreciated.

Describe the condition of the latch. Make sure it is a 67 style and not the 68 style.

It is a 1967.  To me the condition is fair, however the latch handle feels loose.  The finish is definitely poor.  I am including a picture for what it is worth.

I know what you mean.  Good stuff, thanks for posting. 

Looking for a 1967 drivers side under dash light, or light socket original ford socket to use with my housing.

Awesome picture, and couldn't agree more!  Thank you to all who serve and have served.
