Hood Release

Was an internal ( inside ) hood release an option on the '70 Dart? My 340 70 Swinger has the factory under-the-hood release. It would be nice to have an inside release to prevent any quick pop-the-hood and see what someone could jack ( such as the original air breather ). As it is now I won't leave the car unattended to even duck into my local 7-11 store.
