Take a look at this setup for hinges on your hood. I used a set of these for a hard tonneau cover on a truck and they work quite well. I have also seen these on many street rods.

check with XXL on those Sachse hinges ... i think it was him ... if not, someone posted that they had a real difficult time using them with such a heavy hood like our trucks.

Re: Suggestions for hood hinges?

Glad someone knew more about that picture. Here are the hinges I was talking about (top 2 photos) I know these are off a Cadd. CTS or STS 2005-2006 ? The 3rd photo is off something a little older I think a olds aurora ??? All are deck lid hinges. These are probably a little stronger than the ones in your picture. I would remove the gas struts if I used them on a hood. If you want these hinges I would take $ 50.00 including shipping for either pair or offer.
