One of the things I have been working on is a new hood release system.I thought of the idea when I was building my red roadster. I think all the systems out there are good, but to me they are to bulky. I wanted something that when I ran the car with out the side panels or with out the hood it would look nice and not show a big mechanism. So I started with with some 5/8 S.S. tubing and built everything inside the tubing, so all you would see is 2 polished rods going from the firewall to the grill shell. So I did that and it worked really well, so this car I'm going to take it one step further and make previsions for the side panels to be released from this same rod with there own release mechanism, and make all the hinge mounts removable.
