flintauto Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I have an unusual car, a 1933 Durant with hood doors. There are no springs, now, so I have no idea what I'm looking for. I'm thinking they must be some sort of bi-metal so that when the engine compartment heats up they open. Does anyone know where any springs might be available?? Hood doors seem to be a 1932-33 styling thing. thanks Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Braverman Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Most hood doors of this era are opened and closed manually. There is usually a wire spring that snaps them open or closed. I will try to get a photo of the springs on the hood doors of my Franklin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
