Here is my version of Putters and 68w/sbc406's in cab hood release.....

My addition was a threaded adjuster from a bicycle brake cable. I welded in a 6 MM nut and voila.....I used a billet cable setup from Watsons Street works..

I mounted the cable under the dash....works nice. I decided to fabricate this because I installed the LMC billet grille and the extension rod for the latch is pretty crappy...at least I thought so.....
