I need help from the 33 Hot Rod family. I am working a 35 truck project, but I hated the look of the 35 hood and grill surround. I ordered the "33 rod rod grill" for my truck but that still shows up with the shorted hood.
I then cut the surround and fiberglassed it to the truck hood to create a 33 "style" hood.
So my question for the group. What kind of hood hinge hardware works, the truck hinge will not work, so I was thinking a 4 bar type hinge is necessary to get the hood up and forward to clear the grill lip?
I read that many people are struggling with the factory five hood hinge and I was wondering if anyone has tried an after market 4 bar or forward tilt hood hinge such as: Untitled.jpg hood 3.jpg
