blackbeard Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 Looking for close up pictures on hood hinges for a 2000-2002 chevy monte carlo nascar
Force Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 The hinge itself is not that hard to do and they had supports to hold the hood open. They either had a J shaped hinge under the hood or mostly just a couple of plates sticking up over the rearmost parts of the hood with a bolt through them. The hold up support is a sissor like bracket that folds in the middle. Here is the hinge itself, the triangular plates are sticking up above the O in the Unocal 76 sticker, one on the fender and one on the back of the hood and a bolt through. Here is the hold up brackets, a couple of different styles. On later Cup cars they also have two pieces of rope from the chassis to the hood to keep the hood from flying off in a crash.

Mothersworry Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 (edited) Deckid hinges on a Monte Carlo Nascar that I made fer this kit when it wuz first issued lotsa years ago. I make hood hinges the same way, sheet plastic cut to shape fixed to the body and hood or trunk than a hole drilled thru both and a piece of fine wire glued in place for the pivot point.
