Hey gang...

It was pointed out to me there could be subtle differences between the hoods of a 68 versus 69 Charger... Feedback...

Thanks...

the only thing I thought was different was the hood latch and the pull handle

Also 69 hoods have a 2x2 metal tab welded to each side underneath where the hood bumpers hit.

   Mine were put in with two metal tabs which had to be spread out to anchor it on the hood.

I might be wrong about the welding as my truck has the removable ones you mentioned. Ill have to actually look instead of remembering.
