47-52 Reverse Tilt Hood Pics? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Thadious · 01-22-2011, 01:30 PM

Looking to try something different with my build and trying to find a picture of anytype, installed or not, of the mechanism for the reverse tilt hoods for our trucks. I've found many sites that list them, but never a valid picture...

Anyone have one squirreled away or know of a build that has them in it?

Would be greatly appreciated,
Ted.

I think this is what you are looking for.

Last I heard the kit was discontinued for lack of interest, but with your skills, we'll be seeing some tech for sure.

I heard the same thing. It doesn't look too bad, you just have to pay attention.

Has anyone installed a kit like this on their truck?

I've gone to the post and started printing off pics and the writeup... we'll see how it goes from here...

Resistance is futile... I will find a way...

Cheers,
Ted.

Thadious, I have the No Limit front flip kit for my 48 purchased it about 3 yrs. ago. I plan on using it someday for now I'm going to leave my truck with the Patina and the hood opening stock. The kit looks well thought out.
