    "Hi! I need your help. I've searched everywhere, but I just can't seem to find the center hood hinge for the '34 Coupe. I've only come across the hinge for the pickup truck. Could someone please guide me in the right direction? Thanks!"

    Rootlieb Hoods in Turlock CA sells them and they fit correctly. I had to replace the entire hinge assy on my 33 because of rust. They have just the SS center if that is all you need.

    Must be the curly center edge of the hood half. And require welding on.
     
  8. Isn't that formed as part of the hood at the factory? No mention of that missing.:confused:

    It commonly cracks. Maybe they removed it all and wanted to weld another on?
     
  10. Mmm, maybe. Crystal ball not working so well today.

    I attached a Picture in the 1st post. (Its for the pick up, not the coupe).
     
  12. Yes, I understand that you posted a picture of the pickup hinge. I also understand that you want a car hinge. To me a car has a front and rear bracket and the s/s centre strip that forms the hinge.
    You told me that what I posted links to was not what you were looking for, but whatever Deuce Lover posted was. I am asking you to post a pic of what that is. I am totally curious.

    X makes sense. The “hinge” on a passenger 34 is just the stainless strip. Then there’s the hood tops. Can you see our confusion? Do you have hood tops with the curly edge cracked off?
