82 smc hood repair

Ok my hood it almost perfect except for one of the bolt holes has been pulled out I guess what happened is the support bracket got hung on something somewhere along the way. The hood has been sitting in a bard for a long time before I got it and is in amazing shape otter than that. So what I'm trying to figure out is how do I fix that bolt hole or can you even do repair work on these hoods

Can you post a pic. There are SMC repair kits and in some cases there are other options.

A thread insert installed with 3M 05883 may work (blindly guessing).
