330 GTC Hood pad design and pattern

Post by wwwboard »

Posted by Joel Benatar

I am looking to get the design and pattern for the hood pad on my 330GTC 1967 (9055).This car is on the Ferrari's Owners Gallery. I recently got the material from Lyle Tanner and went to install the pad and to my horror found the bottom channel for the pad completely filled with bondo and paited black. I have removed most of it so that it can be made the correct way
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Joel

Hi Joel,

Sorry to hear about the bondo. I hope it's not evidence of a past repair of the hood surface. Be careful how much you remove so that it doesn't affect the support and paint on the other side.

If any GTC owners have pictures of their underhood area, and would like to share, I'd be happy to post them somewhere on this site for everyone to see.

Thanks.

I need to replace mine as well. I have the old torn one. Will measure the diamond pattern and post as soon as possible.

Keith,

The measurements would be great - if you could, would you also get the max height and
width needed for the GTC while your at it?.

FWIW, the hood pad for a couple of models of Alfas looks like a dead ringer, but I haven't bought one to see if the pattern or dimensions would work:

The diamond patterns measure 7"W x 7.75" H. This is from an original hood pad for a 330GT. I should be able to get the max height and width of a GTC hood this weekend. Will post when I have the information.
