Also, again to be accurate, Alan’s work in the Blue Healey was what inspired me to mention the strut idea to Steve Thomton. If you look at Alan’s site you will note that he also installed struts for the bonnet.

My buddy, Steve Thomton, owner of a multiple award winning BJ7 Rally Tribute car gets all the credit for fabricating the bits and pieces. Does require a small slot in the armacord. I love it, but some won't. To each his own.
