Leather rub protector engine hood

[AKJurnee]

Does anyone have a drawing or source for the little leather rub protector thingy on the corners of the engine bay doors? Also the latch that holds both doors up on the cowl in place when both doors are open?

Awesome! Thanks Bob!

If you're going to purchase and install these leather corners, they don't attach as you might think. As purchased, they come folded with the stich seam on one edge. They should be installed with the seam centered on the backside of the re-configurated leather corner with no stich on the two edges. I hope I made this clear.

What Al said... instructions from Snyder's for the hood corners: https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/content/Snyders/Product_PDFs/A-16622-SL.pdf

I just bought, among other items, a set of hood holders from Bratton's for $2.99 .

Yes, but for $2.99 I couldn’t resist. And it is plastic coated so it will not scratch.
