Richard,
I don't know if this helps you or not, but the rod between the latch and the
"L" shaped pivot on mine, which "appeared original" from the pitting and
apparent age on mine, was not straight. though it does not look exactly like
the drawing either...
It appeared shaped like this:

I____I I
Hope the server doesn't reformat this and screw it up....

Rich,
I bought the BJ7/BJ8 service parts manual CD and copied this portion of
illustration for the hood latch mechanism. Is this original? I looked at
John Snyder's unrestored tri-carb and my B-in-Law's BT7 and both had a
"straight" rod. Can you enlighten us?
