Anyone know where I could get a pair of these or have a specs that could be used to fabricate them? These are the hooks that are on the Radiator shroud to hook the front latches of the hood. Any help would be appreciated! :) Thanks

| Seems like Norm at Norm's Toys has these. Also may have seen them in ads in the Old Allis News. |

I took a pair to a show and had the blacksmith make me a set. How they turn out is dependent on his skill - but they work . Was the bottom of the latch - not the top. ------------- I used to be young and stupid, now I am not young anymore. |

| Are you talking about the part that goes on the radiator shell? I had to make my own from flat steel. I used a cut off wheel and a metal blade in a jig saw. I was lucky I used my brother's D12 as a pattern. There is a left and right. Both are cut out the same, just bend the hook opposite to make a pair. They are shaped different than the example "H" that is circled in above posting. Same idea but not the same shape. |

| I sell new roller mills that have exactly the same latch on some guards as the D series tractor hoods. I can also buy them at my local industrial fastner supplier. |
