The timing of this thread about safety is pretty ironic. Anyone on the list
had their hood fly open at 60 mph? My girlfriend said I had been pushing my
luck--two weeks with no breakdowns.
My hood, obviously, is now junk. It also bent the fender upward where the
prop rod is attached. Plus the cowl just before the windshield. The
windshield didn't even crack though. I'll try and get some pictures up, if
anyone is interested.
The weirdest thing is, I just bought another hood on eBay in Mississippi
because of the rust on mine. I hope to go after it next week. Anyone have
any suggestions on repairing the cowl?
