Suicide Hood
I was thinking about converting the hood on my 1983 Mercedes Benz 240D to a suicide hood for looks at a carshow and possibly to allow clearence for a tunnle ram or supercharger ( more clearence this way ). I have a couple of questions on how to do this. Where do i get the latches and hinges needed for this? and how can i hook the release up to my stock hood release lever? Another problem is the car's hood is like a Dodge truck hood, the grille assembly is attached, how can i make this work? Pictures of my car can be found here http://www.clubhotrod.com/t4056.html.You don't know what you've got til it's gone

Could it be a 10114182? If so, it is a Gen V 454, 4 bolt 1991 (or later). Hope that helps..
