I searched but couldnt find anything on this. I was wondering if anyone has attemtped or succeeded in modifying the hood of a third gen camaro to open backwards, ala corvette style. I was watching the Barrette Jackson auction last night and thought about it when a vette came across. Not sure what all would be involved, I know the hinges would have to be relocated and some release mechanism. Considering how heavy the damn hood is, not sure if it would be a benefit or not. Thought it might be interesting though.

 

Try searching for "suicide hood" or "buick hood" or "Corvette hood"

Here's a few posts:

Should be enough to get you a thinking.

 

Cool, thanks for the links. I guess I didnt include all those terms together. I'll read up on them and weigh my options. Thanks!
