    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    That is at least an idea that will reduce the overall tension pushing up on the hood. It may be the second best alternative to removing the spring altogether. Thanks.

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    This is the only way I could think of doing it, but wondered if there was some awesome hack that I was unaware of. Even bending the tab without slipping and scratching the paint seems VERY difficult. Am I overthinking it? The first couple attempts led me to believe all parts including the tab...

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    I like that idea, but I think just the current spring pressure alone is warping the hood. The top of the spring is only causing minor damage to the under side of the hood. I could deal with that if it didn't warp.

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    Not original paint, but a good paint job which I hate to damage, especially because the damage will be VERY apparent with the hood open at shows etc.

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    Are you referring to the spring next to the latch or the springs on the hinges?

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    these are great photos and I appreciate the response. However, I am referring to the popup spring near the hood latch, not the hood lift springs at the hinges.

    Most Delicate Way to Remove Hood Popup Spring?

    Dumb question, but what is the best way to remove the hood popup spring without destroying the paint around it? I bought my 70 Barracuda with a good Moulin Rouge paint job already in place. It has a YearOne fiberglass AAR hood which warps badly in part because the hood popup spring is constantly...

    FOR SALE 340 Six Pack

    I just stumbled across this thread. Do you still have the whole setup or is it now spoken for? How far are you from Terre Haute, IN. I have family there who could pick it up if shipping to me in Fairfield, CA 94534 is too costly.

    Best High-Amp Alternator?

    It wasn't mentioned but I replaced all the wiring harnesses a little over a year ago when restoring the car.

    Best High-Amp Alternator?

    That is kind of how I have been doing things. As an item is no longer needed with the updated configuration, I tend to leave it in place to give a more stick appearance at a glance. There are many things that are no longer stock under the hood, but I try not to make them all jump out at once...

    So I recently installed Vintage Air AC, Sniper Stealth EFI, Hyperspark CD Ignition/Coil/Distributor. I'm only getting about 12.0 volts charge when the AC is on. I have all new M&H wiring harnesses and bulkhead fixtures. I want to install a higher amp alternator and bypass the ammeter. I have...

    71 Challenger Door Glass Hardware

    The retainer broke holding the forward end of the horizontal lift track on driver door glass of my 71 Challenger. I have the machine screw, but need to replace (ASAP) the piece in the photo that was lying in the bottom of my door. I've searched all over, but keep finding a small retainer in...
