I have drilled on set of hinges and honed the hole
a bit to work. I don't know if I did 69 hinge to fit 68 or 68 hinge to fit 69. I
did use the back hole but the front hole was different
location.
Not much help but my
experience

Subject: [Chevelle-list] 69 Hood on a
68
Has anyone had any luck modifying the hood hinges
from a 68 in order to put a 69 hood on a 68 with the 68 hinges? It
appears that the rear mounting point is farther back on a 69 hood, but can you
just extend the hood mounting point on the 68 hinges rearward to make it
work? I know you can buy repo 69 hinges to solve this problem, but I
have pretty good metal working skills, and wondered if I could save a few
frogskins...... Thanks.
