There is a substantial gap between my grill retainer and the hood latch bracket on my car. Someone in the past filled it with slugs cut from a broom stick handle! See photo link below. Can someone post a pic of correct installation so i can figure out what part i need to replace?

You have a '66 latch base, you need a '65 one.

It's a 66 type modified to 'almost' work on a 65 grill. If you look at the front of the latch bracket, there are two bolts for a 65 type latch plus an extra hole between the two bolt as in 66 type. The car definately need a 65 type.
