I've been searching for a couple of years for a hood release handle for my 40 pickup. I finally emailed Bob Drake and Dennis Carpenter Reproductions. They said they don't know when of even if they will ever reproduce more.

My question now is: Are the pickup and car hoods the same? If all i need to do is use car trim and ornament, I'm will to go that route as I need to be able to open the hood.
Is there another source I haven't found yet? Being in eastern Montana, used parts are hard to find.
