Hood Reinforcement
On my 56 S on the underside of the hood there are some metal rods and a formed / ribbed piece of sheet metal that goes transverse across the underside back near the cab. The rods connect to the reinforcing rib but the rib is not connected to the hood in the center and it rattles loudly when I close the hood and the hood flexes all over the place. Was the rib spot welded to the bottom of the hood in the center at one time? Seems like it should have been but I just don't want to weld it and find out that wasn't part of the design. Has anyone else dealt with this?
