5000 Ford

[bks1533]

Restoring 1968 Ford 5000 needing a good pic of brackets that brace the hood on.
Thanks for any help you can give

There’s actually not any brackets for the hood, there’s a bracket bolted to the back of the head that supports the dash shroud and battery tray, and there’s one that bolts to the front of the head that braces the nose cone
Are those the ones your asking about

 

[bks1533]

yes

I have the hood off my 6600 at this time and I’ll snap a couple photos of the brackets
Same brackets a 5000 uses
