Dear Sir the 66 is easy, a long screwdriver or some other pieceof metal operated through the grill will do it if in doubt look under the hood of a 64 65 66 model first and you will see what you have to push to open the hood . I had it happen on my 63 which is a REAL pain and I managed to open that one, although afterwards I put some bail binding plastic around the under hood catch so that if it ever did happen again I could just pull the flat binder plastic that I had left available to do this hanging inside the front fender. >From: Oneof514@xxxxxxx >Reply-To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Subject: IML: Hood Relase Cable Broke - Help! >Date: Sun, 16 May 2004 10:13:51 EDT > >The hood release cable just broke on my 66 Imperial - naturally with the >hood >closed! > >Any suggestions for getting it open again are much appreciated. > >Thank you, >Wayne Jorgensen >1966 Imperial
