This is what I put in Vixen. I thought it retained the 60s vibe much better than some others.

No need to even mess with the factory radio. Put it anywhere you want.

omg, it was beautiful here in cypress, tx! So, I thought I'd play the matt sage green metallic and spray the engine compartment. Took some time to prep it, but it came out nicely~ the paint sprays so well! I'll make a nice cover for it while it's in wait. hm, the sofa is calling me to lay on it! 
oh, the radio that I did order, they called me and asked for the application, and I responded~ "oh, we don't have a radio for that car", so I cancelled the order.

re the radio, i come up against that when buying parts for a custom build here in the uk. if you don't have a vehicle registration to give them most parts suppliers are useless these days. i look for a suitable 'matching' vehicle on ebay and then give them that registration, lol.

When my wife insisted on getting new living room furniture, I refused letting the most comfortable recliner I ever sat in during my life, go to Goodwill. I drug that thing straight out to my shop! Now, I don't even have to walk back to the house to lay down and rest for a minute!
I was going to do that also but The better half had a caveat. Do that I want a phone or a intercom in the shop. Hope someone is enjoying the recliner!
Now that another ice age has set in for several days~ I got to thinkin about a hood prop. There's probably nothing wrong with the original "torsion bars?" So, just trying to clean up the engine compartment clutter.
I think the easier way is just to have a hood prop. Otherwise~ any ideas?
I found this pic a while back, there was no information as to what hydraulic things were used and I sure don't know how to calculate the necessary lift/length. actually looking at the picture, I'm not sure what vehicle that is.
This is Tincups, looks like there's a billet hinge?
original things of course
and just a nice clean slate
and found this on our forum;)

DArt Hood Hinges
I am getting my *** handed to me over the hood hinges on my 1970 Dart. These were poorly designed to start with and I cant seem to get a set to work. Has anyone here created a replacement product that they would be willing to share thoughts on with me? Ideally they would utilize rams and lose...

That pic with the fugly blue wheel....I'm pretty sure is a FABO members car. He did some fantastic work on it.....and it's a 4 door. I can't remember his screen name, but I will go dig around and see if I can find the thread. If I remember right, his car ended up a similar color to what yours will be.
Yes I did. Hood and trunk...
Mopar Tim , so can you post your link to the hood/trunk lift things, or what did you use, from what application, etc etc

I dug around, and there are no pics of strut installation in the thread I was thinking of. Looks like you've got a handle on it though. After you figure it out....I'll copycat you on my 65 Barracuda, lol.
