Hello all,

I am looking for new hood hinges for my 56 Sedan but can't locate any for 56. Would 57 hinges work? Or does anyone have a set of 56 hinges for sale?

Thank you,

J Switzer

SMS rebuilt my 1941 hood hinge if you're interested. Very nice job.
Thanks,

I also can recommend SMS in New Hampshire, they did a first rate job on my '73 hinges a few years ago.

The hinges for 1956 are not separated but are attached together by a "cross member" under the hood, supporting it. I should not be so complicated to find one set.
Hinges from 1955 or 1957 are not the same.
