69 Coronet Hood Hinge to Hood Bolts

[CatDieselPower]

Hello all,

69 Coronet R/T, 3 of the 4 hinge to hood bolts are the correct 5/16 bolts with 1/2 head and integrated washer. However, the passenger rear bolt is a 3/8. Did it come from the factory this way, or did someone strip out the 5/16 threads and retap to 3/8?

Thanks!

Sounds like a stripped out thread was replaced - all 4 x bolts should be the same.

I call someone striped it for $200.00 Jack.. Yep

That's what I figured. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't something that was supposed to be that way before I fixed it with an insert.

Thanks guys!
