C2 1963-1967 Corvette Hood Hinge & Radiator Reinforcement - Right Hand

The C2 19631967 Corvette Hood Hinge & Radiator Reinforcement – RightHand (RH) is a purposebuilt reproduction designed to restore the essential structural connection between your car’s hood hinge, inner fender skirt, and radiator support.

This RH reinforcement distributes that load across the surrounding body structure, minimizing flex, preserving hood alignment, and reducing frustration from misaligned gaps. By reinstating the original mounting geometry, you’ll experience smoother hood travel, better seal performance, and longer life for the surrounding panels.
