This is an original 1940 Ford Pickup truck UPPER Hood Latch Plate.  Pretty good condition, some normal wear, some lite pitting in areas-see photos.  Hook is not stuck, but needs a good soak to have full movement-see photos.  This fits up inside the hood.  Correct for 1940 Ford 1/2 ton Pickup/Panel.  Will also fit '40 Ford Standard passenger cars.  Please check my other auctions.
