I’ll have to take a closer look , they are original to the car . The rubber bump stop slides over the pin but let me check on pin size.
Try again. Beep. Beep.

Are these factory pins available as a repop? Ive got a set of A12 pins + rear brackets, just wondering if there would be any difference. Seems like it would be much easier than trying to do some bracket wizardry.

If you have your hood I would look to see where the location of the holes are, you may need brackets I didn’t think about that .

A12 hood pin location

Got me a set of the rear brackets, but I have a 68 so same hood support pads as you. No pins originally, just the bumper stop for the good on a much smaller guage screw. Was thinking I'd have to drill it out bigger to mount the front pins there.

It appears the front area where the pin is located is different on the 69 than the 68, take a close look at the pic. Of the orange 69 and the blue 68 it looks like a different piece of metal was used between the two that the pin mounts to.

My hood pins are in line with radiator support and the 69 are set forward of the support.

If I’m not mistaken, those PT Cruiser bicycles were a limited production run.

Not sure I thought it was pretty cool for 20 bucks.
I would like to ride also but I don't want to peddle, Big Mo.
Good looking RR. Love the color,what is the paint code?

Factory Petty Blue ,it has the special paint code 999. That means its a non factory color. Richard Petty still owns the copy rights .
