64 Plymouth GT/EA in Ennis

[X-TECH MAN]

I dont think to many really care but just to let you know I was looking at Tony DePollow's (sp?) 64 savoy running SS/A (with the weight out) at the Dutch Classic and it had the hood attached by 4 hood pins. No henges visable.

1964 Wedge cars, hood was conventional. 1964 Hemi Sedans had a lift off hood. 1965 A990 cars went back to conventional hood attachment. We have been through this with NHRA, we have produced the proper Chrysler documentation to support the lift off hood.
I could find photos to support either method but why bother. Look at a FWD GT conversion, then look at a 1964 SS hemi, which one do you think looks like a stock car?
Let me have the Clutchless gearbox in B and I'll put hood hinges on my old pig.
