Hood letters

How do you remove the hood letters on my 68 chevy. I'm cutting the oxidation with some compound and i want to get under the letters not just around them. but I don't have any idea how to take them off. Any help would be great. Ill be happy when I my hood turns from Grey to blue!


Thanks for the help.

Re: Hood letters

There are nuts on the back side. Be careful not to lose the nuts in the hood and be careful not to break the studs on the letters.
