I searched and found one of these metal, one piece hinge covers only to discover afterwards (and after paying $75) that it does not fit on my 1967 Square. It does not line up correctly at all. Don't want anyone else to make the same mistake as I did. Patrick Patrick J. Morton . . . . . . . . . . . . .

The tin full width hinge cover for the Square should fit the later models, I have put one on my '69 Square and have another for my '73 square. If you look on the body metal under the roof lining you will see indentations punched in the appropiate places, its just a matter of drilling holes where the indentations are to take self tappers and screwing the tin cover on. Screw the front and back first then the sides as you have to push quite hard to get the sides to line up with the holes you have drilled. I removed the piece of headlining under the tin.
