Need help on hood hinges

[65TRUK]

I just joined the group the other day and really enjoy reading the input and comments from so many enthusiasts. What I need is some advice / guidance on how to safely / correctly remove and eventually reinstall hood springs (and hood) on my '65 stepside' project.

Current status: the frame (I picked up a '64' frame.) has been sand blasted and painted. I have all of the parts to completey rebuild the rearend with seals and new brakes & cables. The doors are off and body work done on them. Rear fenders have all the welding done, but I need to do the finish work. Next I need to get the hood off so I can dismantle the front end.

Thanks in advance to any and all who send along helpful information.
