2018 Update:My how time flies since I posted about coming up with a design for opening and closing H-Body front opening hoods. I have since begun making videos of my progress on the Pontiac. I prefer videos now because with the invention of camera phones with HD resolution and the ease of instant uploading to my YouTube channel simply works better for me. I have a ton of pics I have taken thinking I would post them and never did because the process was cumbersome and most time I couldn't remember what pics went with what project after time passed. So... this the future now and here is the video link for this updated thread. BTW, please subscribe to my New YouTube Channel by clicking on the red

Project Journal which also discusses the Gas Charged struts and the reason I'm bringing this old thread back to life.
