I think this pin is an original but wanted to confirm it. It was on the rear window louvers but others were missing.

 :wowzers:  It took me about 10 seconds to even see a pin in that photo.   :haha:   Sorry I don't know much about rear louvers.  But thanks for sharing the photo!   :ohyeah:

Pin?  What pin? : :inlove:
Original T/A AAR hood pins are flat where the lanyard attaches.  There's a good picture in the article about Frank Badelsons unrestored T/A in the late great Mopar Action from several years ago.
One of mine is original I learned from that article, I'll see if I can get a good picture of it.
I have an original set of louvers stashed, I have been meaning to compare one of its pins to an original to see if I can then have 2 correct ones on my car.

Here is my original one next to an aftermarket.

Thought you would all enjoy that. :wowzers:

Well it seems that I have one that's right. It look just like your hood hinge. I haven't begin to look for any of these yet so I better get on it.

Thanks
