Hello,
I think I know what they are. You did mention that the 67.5 was a racecar at
one time. As well, Dave Pina says that his car had them too. His is an
(almost) ex-BRE Racecar.
Many racers used hood pins to hold the hood down. They didnt really on just
the standard hood latch but would also have a couple pins that went through
the hood and then were locked down by a large "Cotter" type pin.
It sounds like your racer had these on the car at one time. The hood doesnt
show it as it was probably replaced.
