"What are you looking at for reference?
John"
For reference for what? Don't understand the question, John.
"Two things cause the 90deg. hood to contact the
roof gutter.... worn hinges and wind. The secondary
latch began to show up in late '67 to take "wind"
out of the equation.
John"
What is this 'secondary latch' you mention, John?
"Let me make this perfectly clear -
NO FACTORY SWEPT HOOD HINGE EVER HAD AN "OVERRIDE" TO ALLOW OPENING BEYOND THE INITIAL STOP POINT.
(SEE THE PERIOD AT THE END OF THAT SENTENCE?) PowrWgnDrvr"
You're the one that said "over-ride", not me, if that was aimed in my direction. As far as the '69 I owned, you're mistaken. It opened fully, and it had good Sweptline type hinges.
"In the pic the hood was not opened to it's fullest extent. It was opened to the point where it would "settle" to as the springs would not hold it tight against the stop. Possibly new springs would have corrected that. Russ"
What sort of angle does it "settle" at when it's the same as that pic, Russ? 45*, 60*, 90*?
