My 1980 Spit also has at least one "donut" where the pin rests. Maybe
something done at the dealer to even up hood clearances quickly?

Subject: Mythical Hood pin donuts
Thanks to all who replied re:my mythical hood pin donuts. The consensus is
that
they are the figment of a previous owner who was likely trying to stop a
rattle.
I'm now looking forward to removing whatever they were/are from the old
girl
as they certainly didn't contribute much to the underbonnet view.
Cheers,
Neil
