I'll post some pics of the hood hinge, I use brass flat plate 1/2" x 2" bent to 90degrees, solder a piece of 1/8" ID tube to it, drill and tap the bottom of the grille and mount the plate to the grille. Then I use two pieces of brass 1/4" x 1" with three holes drilled in them, mount the two pieces to the front spring hanger and then use a 2-1/2" piece of brass rod to slide thru all three pieces. The bottom of the grille needs to be notched a bit as well. |

Re: Tilt nose Pete 379
Paul, the hood and breathers clear each other when tilting. The hood was not lengthened.

Re: Tilt nose Pete 379
Where did you get the grill from, do the headlights come with the grill?
