Lightweight Hood Hinges or Springs

FWD Daytona, Shadow, etc. They are not quite strong enough for a Dart Lite hood, which is 15 lbs lighter than an OEM all steel hood. I still use a prop stick in my race car. But it may be strong enough for a HD fiberglass hood. Should be cheap enough at a U-Pull-It, if you can find the cars.

Be careful removing them. I propped open the hood so it wouldn't fall and wrapped the springs in a towel during the removal process with a pry bar so it wouldn't shoot off at me or elsewhere.

I believe there was a member here called Atomic Dog who sold custom springs.
