1940-1947 Hudson Hood Pivot Joints

    Where could I get a set of the plastic/rubber joints for my 47' Hudson? I currently have one worn one and am missing one on the passenger side of the car. Would a automotive hardware store (that carries standard bolts) also have them or would I have to go elsewhere (Summit, O'Reilly Auto Parts) to get them or somewhere else completely different?

    I am also on the lookout for a 47' hood spring, but I am thinking a step-down spring should do the job for now until I found one of those.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    I believe "Hudzilla" here on the forum has some of the hood springs.
    I also could use some of the hood piviot bushings..They seem to be a extera hard rubber material. Any one reproduce these?? or have extras?

    What size bushing do you need, inside diameter, outside diameter, thickness?
