Good information to know. My 70 Boss Mustang had brand new repo hinges on it when I bought it. Man those were junk!

Very good info. , not many know of the one year only 70 spring . Helpful for the Eliminator scoop application

Great info. What is the final paint color on the 68 hinges? EOY 67 production.

Phosphate & oil.

Correct…no paint was used on the hood hinges or springs. Phosphate/oil is a plating process to protect the bare metal.

Marcus, can I put some of the content of the PDF up in the thread? For mobile users it will be much more accessible.
