possible hood idea?

[88lxi-shortram]

has anyone ever tried putting pnuematic hood holders? i found some small ones and was wondering if its ever been done with success?

pix lol. The stupid bar to hold up the hood falls out sometimes when i go to prop it up. Its annoying, and rather unsafe?!

Doesn't look like there is much room to put them in ,anyone have any pics.

i just welded in the tabs and hoped it worked and it did. i diddnt even need the plate on the hood but i did it for precaution i diddnt want to hurt the hood.

I may have to do this, there is no where for the manual rod to lay across the engine.
