Sorry my friend I am very pressed for time at the moment, but here are a couple links I found on google under trim clips for 48 F1. I hope it helps, gotta go1948-1979 V8 Ford Truck Clips And Clip Kits Clips And Clip Kits - Macs Auto Parts https://www.bobdrake.com/Categories2.aspx?Id=4852hood

Thanks jimmy but I think I need a part number

I'm back Roy, sorry I had to post and run like that . FYI, I do have the "CD" 1948-56 Ford Truck Master Parts Catalog. If you need it, PM me your address and I will mail it to you. You can keep it as long as you need. I haven't had much luck finding the clips so far on it, but you may do better since Im dyslexic.

I finally found the page and figured out how to scan and transfer it, I'm sorry it took so long, I not real computer savvy . I hope this one will help. "ROCKING ON" the FTE way. :-X0A6

I found them at Midwest Early Ford, page 59 in the catalog I have (April, 2015). The were just like the original and worked fine.

Are washers or shim washers at the hinge
the hoods on both my trucks were not on the hinges and Jim exploded view does not show any

Suggest that you message 51panelman. Ilya has been collecting these parts for years and I think has the latest sources for clips. Also you can search this forum using the term "trim clips" and you will find lots of sources. The last that I saw was one recommended by AxRacer Restoration Specialties & Supply, Inc. | Windber, PA 15963
