I have the same problem with my 380SEC. In my case both of the black
phenolic plastic (bakelight ??) parts that attach to the hood are broken.
The springs are still good, and I plan to try to use JB weld to fuse them
back together, but I fear the force of the hood coming down to the latch
will just break them again. Does anyone have a couple of hood latches
available from a parts car? If so, I would like to purchase them. These
parts attach to the hood with two bolts. I can send a picture of the parts
just to be sure we are talking about the same thing.
