not a 914, but a simple way to make a hood flip forward.
Click to view attachmentI am going to do something similar to my 914 tube car in the next couple of weeks using a mounting flange that ties into the two threaded holes for the original hood latch.
For a stock 914, could make a simple pipe assembly that bolts across the front into the stock headlight bucket area (like his upper radiator support he built) and have the second pipe assembly bolt to the center hood latch area. then either fab up a latch mechanism to the back center of the hood, or just use hood pins at the rear corners (which is what I will do), or I think what this Nova has is the BMW rear latches (though not sure of that, but looks like what I recall BMW stuff looking like).
Notice the angle to the attaching "links" that bolt into the radiator support brackets. That will cause the hood to move up and forward as you open it to clear the nose. In this case, look how far down the nose of his hood is relative to the fenders! Don't need that for a 914, but need it to move up and away to not dig the nose into the bumper.
