Default Hood Brace
Wondering if anyone has seen a chrome hood brace anywhere? It is used to prop up the hood half way for shows and such. Gary

Maybe try one of those chrome adjustable shower-curtain rods, or something like that?

Polished hood struts would be cooler IMHO. Blane's are good product.

Gary, as Cal Cruzer said; why not Blane's struts. You can put the hood in just about any position. Just had a show last Sunday where it rained most of the day and I was able to put the hood half way down to protect the engine but still show it off.

I really like the Blane's struts!!! Looks good and they act as if the hood is "counterbalanced".
