If you don't mind welding and making a set work 3rd gen f body will do.You would have to mount them on the fenders but they fold down flat about 2 inches thick but you will have to use a prop rod or rig up a gas shock system to keep the hood up.

I have only seen a couple trucks that have installed them, but I remember hearing that they worked well. I think username "5windowpickup" installed them on his 68. Do a search in the 67-72 projects and builds section and you should find it.

Also.... (shameless plug) Our standard hinges run $265. You can always upgrade to the gas assist at a later date.
