I've got a 49 Chevy panel truck that sits on the chassis of a 1999 Explorer. I have one problem I'm unable to resolve and I'm looking for help. The engine compartment is packed and the hood will not rest comfortably in place because of the blower motor assembly of the explorer.
It appears that if I get the rear hood hinges out the hood will lay flat. That means I need to figure out a way to have the hood open from the cowl to the front, reverse of normal. I've found no aftermarket kits and hope someone at some point has fabricated something along this line and can give me some guidance.
Thanks for any and all help.
