The 1967 model year differs in many ways from all other years, which is why this so-called transitional model is so popular. But on the other hand, it is not always easy to find the right parts for this model.
Behind the hood locking device, which is mounted on the rear apron, there should be a rubber cap that prevents dirt from reaching the locking mechanism. Only the 1967 model year was equipped with it. It was such a typical 1967 piece that you could look for it for years before you found one that was still in good condition. Research is no longer necessary, they are refurbished, a reproduction but of a very high quality that is not inferior to the original.
