Re: anyone have a bagged 73-79?

A couple of options you have is to relocate some custom hinges on the firewall or go with a tilt-forward hood. For the firewall hinges, check out the billet-AL hinges offered by Sachse Rod Shop (http://www.sachserodshop.com/pdf/196.pdf). For a tilt-forward hood, grab a set of the tilt-forward hood hardware from a Buick and mod away.
