I’m tired of wrestling with the hood on my ‘54 3100.
I am not looking for advice on fitting the hood, nor do I need links to instructions on the subject.
I’m simply asking for input from anyone who has abandoned the springs in an effort to get the darned thing to set even with the cowl and stay there. Aside from needing a hood prop, is there any disadvantage?
It’s something I’m considering, and I’d like to hear from those with experience.
