How do you pop the hood? Those slats look REAL close together?

Most grilles like that come with a little bar that you slide in there to pop it but i had Putter make me a in cab hood release and it turned out real well. He has a write up on it in the FAQ forum.

I've seen Putter's invention. I'll have to try it someday. 70_402.: I know I've seen that grill in a 69-70 before, I just can't remember where. I thought it looked awesome. Is it possible that the 67-68 insert will fit? They both have a similar sized "middle bar." You'd probably have to buy two of the top bars cause of the lower one being shorter.... someone has to make them.....

A Few years ago Golden State had catologs that had how-to's in them.One article was on installing a billet grill in a 71-72 front end.At the end of the article they showed a 69-70 grill with a billet insert.Said they just cut down a 71-72 insert to fit.
