Securing the hood

[1969dodgedartgt]

Hey,
I'm looking for a clean way to secure the hood on my Dart from unwanted entry. What have you guys done or what do you suggest?

To keep the normal pop the hood and steal something crime of opprotunity thieves out, install a factory inside hood release and latch.
Very cheap and easy. At the C/P dealership that I worked at, we ordered it on every car.

If somebody really wants in, they will probably do more $ damage than what it would cost you to replace.

a well armed militia should suffice

Drill two holes in the meat hook(hood latch) so that it is under the grill suport. Then just run a lock in it, keyed lock works better. When your at a show just reach under the bumper, behind the grill and unlock. I have this on all of my cars and nobody has ever noticed the holes in the hood latch.

You could locking hood pins. Thats what I use on my Scamp.
