Hey gang...
Wanted to make sure on this one.... On the hood hinge-2-inner fender attach point, all three of the fasteners had the larger diameter captive washer as opposed the fender-2-inner fender fastener bolt...
Troy
PS: Think I answered my own question...............
http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,42544.0.html
as a general rule, (but NOTHING written in stone )
Hinge to inner fender are 7/8" washer
Hinge to hood are 3/4" washer
fender to inner fender seem to run primarily more so 7/8" washer
1-1/8" washer are decklid / and also lower steering column to firewall fasteners
A unrestored original 69 Road Runner I just restored had 2 of the 7/8 washer while the 3rd was 1 1/8, it was like this on both sides if I remember right. LEON. :shruggy:

You remember which ones? I too remember them being as such... Isn't the front hinge bolt the bigger 1 1/8 while the rear two are 7/8's?

I'll take a look at the car tomorrow at work. LEON.
Thanks for the pics and the info.
Ask & you shall receive, Better late then never, Here's a Pic on the Road Runner Hood Hinge bolts & there location & size's which is correct. As you can see the bigger bolt goes at top in back. Hope this helps. LEON

sure looks like theres 3 different size washers on that there hinge
Could be, But if so thats probably the way it came. I'm pretty sure after removing hinges I screwed the bolts back in where they came from & they stayed there the whole time, I did not bag & tag those bolts I dont think. Sometimes I do, sometimes I dont, Depends if I'm sandblasting engine compartment or not, ect. This one being original paint & no rust in Compartment I only sanded, sealed, painted. Nothing major, just a driver, no 100 point showcar. Heres my rear. LEON.
REAR
Thanks, my junk is all wrong, didn't need that. :icon_smile_big:
Good to know though as I'll be putting the hood back on soon.
Wait, why would I do it correct now anyway, yeehaawwww! :cheers: :2thumbs:

Wow, you got a nice rear Hemi! Oh, that was just wrong.. :icon_smile_blackeye:
Heres a pic of Drivers side Hinge Bolts. I got hundreds of Pics of the Resto on my old computer. If I could retreive them might let me know if I kept the bolts in there through out the Resto Process. It's possible a smaller bolt slip in? Question, Do those Tires make my Rear look Fat :smilielol: LEON.
P.S. you might notice some of the headbolt marking are different, sometimes they come that way, with the GL or boat anchor, or ect, ect.
In the words of Jim Carrey in dumb and dumber.... "He must work out"
And Yes, Those are the Original Inspection Marks for those that think I may have faked them. LEON.

What are you gonna do with the scarred up paint on the bolts?
Either paint them or touch up with brush. I put the hood back on the car because I've been waiting for past 3+ months for Motor to get Rebuilt. Owner sent it to Koffels Place, A Mopar Specialist 9 months ago & motor was suppose to be done 3-4 months ago. I dont think the owner is to concerned with the bolt heads because every time I mention this kinda stuff he sez he dont care because he's going to race the car & beat the hell out of it, He keeps saying I'm doing too good a job & overkill since it's no showcar & driver. :shruggy: Here's a pic of Rusty 1/4. LEON.
I've seen the car and it turned out great. :yesnod: Ted
Finally installed Rear today.
Another veiw.
Reviving an old thread here...I'm putting my '69 back together, and alot of the hardware on it was previously mis-matched. Can anyone please post some pics of the correct hardware that is mounted to the other side of the hood hinges. :popcrn:
