As the ***le says , I am in need of someone to take a few minutes and take some pictures of their Buick's hinge mechanism's . I need to know where it bolts onto ( fender or cowl ) how it bolts onto the hood ( picture of the hood brace / bracket that the hinge bolts to ). Then up front I need the latching mechanism pictures . Again , how it bolts on , what it bolts onto , ( pictures of the overall rad support that the latch mechanism ) and one last request , how the hood pin is connected to the hood . Same deal as well how and what it bolts to . If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated . I am going to try and make the hood open conventionally on my 51 Buick as I find the left and right opening not very convenient . Thanks , Andy..
