Back in '69 I put those hood holdowns through the hood. Instaed of the pins I used some mini-padlocks. They'd be easy to cut but keep the honest people honest. I have been told you can rig a chain and padlock set-up from the hood in front of the radiator. Also I wonder if a later model hood release can be fitted to our cars? And when myt new electric pump is installed I'll put in a kill switch that will thwart some.
