    Correct hood latch location

    What is the correct distance from the centerline of the hood to the hole location for the latches?

    Thanks

    Generally 12 inches but I don't know how true to original that is...or if like so many things on the originals it varied from car to car.

    Cheers,
    Jeff

    Thanks Jeff. I found out they're 12-1/4" apart. You were right on.
