Hot Rods Model A hood props

Any of you guys make your own? Lets see them.

 

Nobody?

 

I use the one that attaches to the radiator rods and folds open to hold each hood side.

 

I was hoping that somebody had homebuilt one.

Here’s the scoop on mine.

I wanted something no one else had, so I fashioned these out of some left over shop materials. Minimalistic but they work fine.

Made a trunk mounted bracket to hold the rods.

Very nice work, Jeff. But I have full hood,I guess I should've mentioned that.

 

This might be more of what you are looking for ? My Dad's 31 Roadster, he was always the innovator , more upgrades to his Model A's than any I've ever seen . These popups have a soft spring that comes up when the hood is lifted . D Mc

 

Thanks Scoop!

 

Can't take credit for this as I copied it after one I seen on an old Fordbarn thread.

 

Brake line?

 

Do you have a pic further away, I'd like to see how far the hood is up. This is what I'm looking for,thanks.

 

There just round stock swedged on on end. I flipped them side to side from the last photos to show the best opening you would get using the existing gas tank mounting holes.

 

Thanks alot,this is what I'll be doing.

 

62pan, copied yours damn that was simple! Thanks so much.

 

Yeah that’s aweful clever!
