D model hood prop
All went well until I found the left side prop was hitting the firewall when it was being retracted.
I pulled the prop away from the firewall to bend it enough to clear it and it snapped.
I'm astounded that the hood props are made of cast steel (white metal?)
I would have bet they were steel, but they're not.
So now I'm looking for a replacement.
How many years/models used the same props? I need to know, so I can search for the right item without limiting my search for a prop to fit a '37 D-40.
Thanks in advance.
Extra thanks if someone has one they'll sell me.
