I have a 71 Dart that I am converting back to a hinge mount! how do the hinges mount and also what is the bolt thread and length that goes onto the hood itself.. thx
 
the hinges themselves mount on pins that are alongside the cowl area and i believe the blots are the same ones that are used for the fenders. next trip outside i will check
 
I think I used a 1/2" socket on them so I'm thinkin' they are 3/8" course thread. You need the star washers for the hinge to body mount.
 
pics would be great guys... this is my first a body deal..... is there a threaded hole in the body there somewhere to mount the hinges.... thx
 
the areas where the duct tape is are where the hinge mounts. you need some little spring steel clip to hold them on, i threw mine away so i no picture of them....

Yes, you will need 2 bolts for each side of the hood and two star/spring washers for each hinge to retain the hinge on the body mount.
