reverse open hood
reverse open hood i am big into the car show scene and thought it would be very cool to have a reverse opening hood. has anyone ever thought of doing this? how difficult would it be and what would be involved in the process of making the hinges? Would Corvette hinges work for our cars? i cant remember their design so im clueless on if they would work?
Don't think the Corvette hinges would work, cause the hood would actually need to go forward as it tilts up to clear the front end, where the vette hood i'm pretty sure just hinges and swings straight up. Can't remember the name of the company, but it was in one of the last issues of PHR where they're making kits for 1st Gen Camaros to have a reverse open hood, and I think they said they'd be making more kits soon.
yeah i subscribed to the mag and thats actually what gave me the idea. i called the company and they said it was a universal setup and they sent me a packet of info about it. the kit is $2800 and it is fully power. you unlatch, pop the hood, and lift it up with the push of a button. very very cool jus a lil to pricey for me.
