I am at the point on restoration, where I want to install the "hood" on my car before the engine goes in, but have a question. I have 2 later lids that I was going to use for a GT lid, and noticed they have rubber buffers on the hinge, to keep it from banging I suppose. My early lid does not have holes in the hinge for these bumpers. Anyone know if the early lids are supposed to have a bumper?
Thanks, Bill

If I recall correctly, the rubber stop is installed under one of the fasteners for the rain tray to lid. Does a -6 have a rain tray?

edit: PET 803-05 shows the rubber stop for a -6. Also shows the drip pan not for 914-6

Right, there is no drip pan. The bumper I am talking about is on the hinge itself, not the L shaped rubber piece that screws to the lid.
