Default 66/67 hood mount

Anybody seen studs for mounting the hood on a 67? This is a very early 67.

My 67 uses bolts on both ends of the hood hinges, I believe my buddy's 66 is the same.

My understanding is 65-66 used studs, and 67 used bolts. My 66 has studs. That being said, I can't say whether the stud setup was carried over into early 67 or not...

Invoice date on this car is 10/25/66 so I assume manufacture was in Oct sometime.
