malibud Posted April 27, 2013 Share #1 Posted April 27, 2013 In the middle of cleaning out engine bay for sand blasting ..Can I take of the hood hinge is it spring loaded ? I guess the real question is can I get it back in ? also what color is it suppose to be ? thanks Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/46388-hood-hinge/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoJoe Posted April 28, 2013 Share #2 Posted April 28, 2013 (edited) The hinges are the same color as the body. They are easy to get out and back in. Does yours have the bars that connect the hinges across & behind the grill? That's what gives them some tension to keep up the hood I'm guessing. I've seen the hood function fine without those bars.
