I took a picture with an actual camera this time to show just how nice it looks underneath. I really love the black hood latch and hinges against the green.

You could always get the trim and powder-coat/paint to match the grill.

The look of your truck is just awesome. Leave it the hell alone

Happened to me in a '67 F-100. For some reason, the hood flew up but no damage. I'd suggest a short length of chain bolted to the radiator support and a hook. We put that on and never had another fly-up. It never came unlatched again, either, though. LOL.

That would look terrible.

I've been craving a dark monotone '69 with all the Ranger chrome on it. That's my dream truck right there.
