I wish I would have seen this before painting my firewall, I believe I have 3 holes not accounted for.

anybody recognize these circled in red holes?

Unfortunately those are NOT factory holes  :console:

Maybe carefully fill with something like JB Weld and touch up with orange paint  :dunno:

Well it sucks and I should have known better.  I am going to weld them up and repair/prime/repaint as required.

@Rbob  If that is base coat clear coat it should be easy to blend your repair area's. And keep your heat down.  :yes:

No luck finding it yet, but could someone post up a template/stencil for mounting washer nozzles (squirters) on an AAR repro hood?  I can get a general placement from some photos, but would like to get them accurately placed via the "measure twice, cut once" rule.

Thank you!!

This site just continues to amaze.  6 weeks in scratching the surface and  :worship: every night

My 1970 challenger has an inside hood release.   I was told this was a rare option but I have no way to validate if this is original.   Can't imagine someone adding after but curious if anyone knows for sure. 

My question from the photo is my hood release cable is running through the speedo hole and the speedo cable is going through the clutch hole plug ( car is auto obviously).   Where should the hood release cable go?   I don't see it in the diagram, perhaps answering my question on originality.  I see where I can rerun the hood cable to get the speedo correct but wondering which is the "correct" hood release hole.   TIA

This will be invaluable! My 72 Rallye project, while a Cali car so no real rust, came completely gutted, so this will help A LOT!!! :)

This might help - I came to the conclusion it goes through a hole beside the speedo cable - would be under the carpet in your pic if it is there - not all cars had it
