Guest svenster Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I need to change the hood release cable on my 52 Buick Special. How do I get the cable end out of the knob that you pull to re- lease the hood? I have done a search of the forums with no luck. Thank you.

g-g-g0 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Carefully pry out the little shiny center portion of the knob. That is if it is like the ones on a Roadmaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest svenster Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 g-g-Go. Thank you for the reply. There is a shiny thing in the middle of the knob. Must be like a Roadmaster. Will try gently praying it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53buickconvert Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 If you can't repair yours, I have one available from a '53 Super that may work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest svenster Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Buickconvert53. Thank you for the offer. The cable is good I believe. I need to get the cable off so I can get the hood release mechanisms off. They need a good cleaning and adjusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
