First try putting it on a lift, or jacking it up (support with jack-stands)
and try to access the latch from underneath using a long screw driver or
similar tool. Once you get it open, run a coat hanger or piano wire from the
latch trrough the firewall as a secondary release.... Not that uncommon.

Anyone know how to unstick a stuck hood latch? Car sat for a couple of years
and now hood release .... well doesn't. I don't think cable is broken. Any
ideas not involving torches/cutting/grinding would be appreciated.
Thanks,
