Hood latch release lever wanted for a 1971 Barracuda
« on: January 17, 2013 - 07:11:46 PM »
I am looking for the lever that comes through the grill that opens the hood on a 1971 Barracuda. I have the hood latch, I do not have the lever. Thanks in advance for any help finding this part, John. You can message me here.

I don't think they make a reproduction of the part he's looking for.
I have an extra one but I'm not sure I want to sell it.....these things are getting like Hensteeth trying to find one and they go for $$$$$$$$$

Hey any one have the part number on a 71? I have one here that I think is a 71. Just want to make sure it's correct before I offer it up.

I don't remember either one of mine having any other numbers than just date code on the base. You can tell by the shape of the lever / date code  :2cents:

Here's a shot of mine

Thanks guys I'll dig it out and check it. I used to know the difference very well it's just been awhile since I played with them. I'm thinking the one I have may have come off a 72 but I will confirm it.
