While looking at my 1975 Fischer Body Book Service Manual I found a page with some odd tools in a Special Tool's general inforation page 1-41 #1 a handle and # 2 claw fits on handle,, were door hinge pin remover.,,,,then looking a little further
I saw the # 5 tool that every
Vega/ Astre owner would like in his or her tool box,
It's called Auxilary Hood Release Tool.,,,, "H" style's (less ''07''Syles,,,,, Go figure,,, it is for the models that have the front hinge hood's part # J-23581 will try to add picture later. I shot it with my Cannon digital to day and will try to enter it in the post so you can make your own.,,,
I know some one has made one of these before in a earlier post on how to open a early H-body with a broken release cable, ,,,Descrpition;,, It has a piece of round bar stock 5/16 th or 3/8 th's ,,,
with a handle with 6 inches long and a 90 degee bend probaly 8 to 10 long with a smaller piece 3'' inches angled at 45 degree's back,,, not even close to a hook but started that way ,,can not tell for sure but maybe some one with a early H-body will know the "dementions" for sure.,,,,,Mike
