What's the deal with the hood prop holding up the hood? Did the hood hinge shocks go out already? How does the hood stay closed...I don't see the front hood latch?

Can't wait to see a Video of the car running and driving around.

Thats an old car show trick....the hinge springs or shocks don't support the hood low enough to see both the engine and hood details. So you gotta prop.
We use to drill a hole in the hinge so you can install a temporary pin but after several damaged hoods from people forgetting about the pin it was a bad idea. Even with the remove before flight tag.

Car looks great and sounds even better John.
