70 sedan panels are tuff to get, the good thing is they are a stitched pattern so i can have a set made and will look close..
somone was just begging for a tracing or outline in actual size or something of a GT37 decal to reproduce them he had them but the demensions where off a little..once he had it right he was going to offer them?
with the static about the hood pins, could it be 70 and 71 are different? thats interesting....maybe mine are wrong but i feel they are original, look at the rust under the lanyard on the bumper..they have been there a long time..my car has never been painted either and the rubber isolaters where stuck..and i mean stuck to the car..
chevelle lanyards are wrong the ends are looped over...the closest lanyard ive found is off a 70 dart or duster, they are 17 in long and the ends are identicle to mine...maybe its a supplier thing..kinda interesting...

Bill has an NOS GT-37 decal. maybe if we plead, beg, bribe him enough, he'll look into reproducing them :-)
The way I understood it, the 70 and 71 GT-37 hood pin setups are slightly different. What is the difference I don't exactly know.
My hood plates also did have the rubber under the metal. I also wonder if it was a plant thing. One plant used screw type A, another plant used screw type B. Or a plant used whatever screws were available and some cars out there have two different screws securing the plates to the hood.
