Default Hood Springs 1971 GTO

Why is it that many pictures I see of '71's there is only one hood spring as opposed to two. It's always the one on the drivers side that's missing. Even pix of restored cars sometimes only have the one. Did certain plants equip them differently ?

This topic has been discussed before. I believe we came to the conclusion that the Fremont plant possibly used only one spring. If you do A forum search you should be able to find said topic.

I thought it was more of a '71/72 difference.

There is really no definative answer seems to go by plant and some by year from 71 to 72 and Im sure it depended on which shift and who called in sick that day to
