1979 Drivers side body hood latch

[Andy]

I am trying to locate a hood latch for a '79. Latch is on the body, not attached to the hood. The latch looks like it is attached to the inner fender well with 2 bolts..It is the U shaped piece where the hood striker falls into...Probably has become worn after all these years. I've checked several aftermarket catalogs and cannot locate one..

Would appreciate a bit of direction.

Thanks..........Andy

I have checked at least 8-10 catalogs of aftermarket parts...ecklers, CC, Corvette America, ZIP, JC Whitney, JEGS, Mid America etc..Nothing on this part...Any ideas? Might be able to find it at Carlisle in August.....
