Hood Hinge Threaded Plate Needed

[cwestra]

Does anyone have an extra hood hinge plate (see picture) or know where I could pick one up at?  This is the part that sits inside the inner fender for the front hood hinge bolt.

Have you tried Dave at Roseville?  Or moparts?

Any idea what the part is called?

There's no reproduction of that...

Looks fairly easy to make. Is the part missing or is the bolt hole stripped out or something. ?

Must be someone here with a scrapped body that it could be pulled from , B body 71 up should have the same plate

If you have access to it drill and tap it up one size, better then cut and welding..

Or try a Heli-Coil...

   I hear what your saying but you could make that with a disc grinder and a electric drill.
If the threads are stripped what about welding a nut on the backside. Then run a tap through after welding.?
cwestra if you get me a paper/cardboard template of what you need I'll make you one?
I did something very similar with the bottom door hinge on my 55 Belair.

Thanks for the offer, Brad.  I'm going to see if I can find one at the Nationals next week.  If not, I may take you up on it.  Mine is lost, not damaged.  I had my hood and hinges off the car a few weeks ago and took the car up to the parts house to get a couple of things.  It must have fallen out then.  Right now I just have a nut and washer in there.
