thinking about hood how to prop the hood up for display. I'll probably use some paper clips.

But I was thinking I could print out some 1/25 scale pictures of hood hinges, cut them out and then glue them to the paper clips...

3D printer?
 
Maybe someone has a 3D printer and could print some for you?

This has been a fun project to watch btw! Makes me wish someone made 70-73 Formula models!

Possibly... I do have the ability to CAD, so I could potentially do that.

Making of the G-braces...

Soldered a couple of 14awg wires, then pounded flat the flange that goes the cowl.

Then simply painted them black.

Ok I may be getting carried away here....lol.

I wired up an LED under the hood to illuminate the engine bay at night. Plugs into the cigarette lighter in the car.
