Hinges... Front hood.

[MAPS]

Hello Experts,

Need to find out, are the hood hinges on a 70 Dart, the same as the A body Barracuda (1969)
Will they fit on correctly and tie to my original hood ? Meaning, without and mods?
Thanks to all that will be able to answer this.

Yes they are all the same until late 72

I'm 90% sure that I have done a similar swap without problems. I'm just not 100% sure, it was a long time ago.

the only difference in A-body hinges from 67-76 The change came in late 72

First and foremost, which is which ?

Secondly, there is nothing I could say that will show or express the gratitude I have with most of the FABO members who know their "shyt."
You guys are something else.

Seriously speaking, I don't think other Mopar Bodied car members are as well read or informed about their cars like the A Body owners/members.
It's like opening up a Moparpedia site and learning as you go.

That's not a bad name for the site as well

There are a few different springs used over those years too. Some hoods were heavier than others. The hinges will swap, though you may have to drill out or elongate a hole to get the adjustment just right.
