A body hood hinges WTF?!

Scamp-
I don't want to make any mods that can be seen. I'm restoring the car so I want it to be correct. Good idea though.

Redfast, thanks for the reminder. That has crossed my mind before.....

Qwkslvr-
The car was disassembled when I bought it so I have no way of knowing.

SmallBlock-
I filled the spring coils with white grease, and put motor oil on all the pivot points. There is no shortage of lube here. The pass side works perfectly straight.
