But you never know how may people owned it, wrecked it, worked on it.I suppose it's possible that the car had been wrecked and newer stuff replaced onto it. However, based on all the Redneck Engineering that's been discovered, I highly doubt they would've actually done the right thing and used genuine Ford parts to repair something as trivial as a hood latch support (convering everything else I've found being original).So - anybody figured out why mine has a single support if they didn't change them over until June of '71?

Eric, I doubt it had a single support bracket from the factory.
I have seen some odd things but the grille and brackets for the single style set up were not being made in 10 / 70.

maybe the first owner did things right.
