Hello! I am a total newbie to this group. I have found a lot of useful information from the threads and hope to find more. I recently bought a '93 mark viii. Absolutely love the ride and everything about the vehicle. Here's the issue, the hood just unlatched on me coming up my road. The secondary latch caught but it will not latch shut. I am not familiar with lincolns at all. It looks as though a striker fell off of the hood. There is a metal square on the hood with nothing in it. I have tried to find a replacement part online and at the dealership. No luck. All I hear is that I will probably have to purchase a new or used hood. Is there something I am missing or is there any way I can fabricate one with knowing the dimensions? I could certainly use the help. Thanx!
