The Hood latch support-Is that the piece that the grill and the hood latch both to? The hood pin and latch are the same?
The only reason I suggested a new hood (10 years ago...wow, that's hard to believe) was the 2 screw holes for the badge on the front edge of the hood on a 69/70. The badge moved to the grille in '71. It's easy going the direction you are, you'll just need to find a way to affix the badge to the hood, whether that's drilling holes, or whatever.
