Re: Hood Hinge Solution? (Bent Hood)

I think once your hood is kinked or bent the only fix is to replace the hood. A hood from a 73-78 would be correct for your 74. The 79-80 hoods are stamped a little different in the front but would work just fine.
As long as you lubricate the hood hinges you shouldn't have a problem with kinking. If you add the braces to your bent hood it will close easier. just my two cents.
