Here's a factory photo of the thumb screws. In the spare parts list it says trucks before serial # ending with 4001 had the thumb screw type hood. My C8 with cab vents is serial # 2673 so it falls in that range. I think over 4001 was the hinged hood on the cab 12. The three cab 11 hoods I have (Who says cab 11 parts are hard to find?) have spring clips on the rear held on by those two back bolts so you slide the hood back towards the windshield then put the two thumbscrews in the front.
