hood hinges
My buddy just picked this truck up and I was wondering where I can get some hinges like his. His hood opens like no other, Here is a pic of them, the rest are just because.

Re: hood hinges
Looks like factory hinges that have been chromed with painted springs...

Re: hood hinges
That should be cad plating just like on your brake booster - my guess is they are just new aftermarket units

Re: hood hinges
The hinges themselves are factory hinges found in any 67-72 GM 10-30.
