Hey all, Ive got 2 very bent bonnet hinges and it looks like a mission to get them drilled out at the pivots. Is there any way of getting the bonnet pinned at the rear as well as the front.

Thanks all

with rally style pins ?

i've seen a car with a bonnet that opens straight up on a hydraulic platform lol

The axe is a good idea but they have been bent back so not sure where to bend them back to! Would I have to weld a plate across just in front of the scuttle panel to mount the pins? - yes rally style pins. I want to avoid welding plates on as this is gonna look shit!
