Not sure how to do it... it requires either a kit or some fabricating on your end. This company has fiberglass tilt front ends and a kit that includes the hinges.

i'll just fabricate some hinges and weld them on

:) it could be to hard and then get me a spring and on old chain

Wow. That looks like it would take 3 men and a boy just to lift it up. A cantilevered fiberglass unit weighs enough, but mabe those old hood hinges would lift it ok.

i see what ur talking about cut out a handhole in the hood and pull back on it like they do on the big rigs

i thought about taking it all off cut the end part of that frame weld the hinges on it then put some cinderblocks under it and put itall back together i'll try it it prob wont work but im gonna give it a shot

oh i see a way u could do it cut out all those side fender things i mean on the inside it will make it weak but also lighter i assume.

that one is not the best setup. you need to weld the front together and add some bracing. this one is powered and pretty simple. check out the pics

the 65 bumper stays in the same spot too. the other one has the frame cut in the front. this setup works pretty good and looks pretty clean.
