One of the most aggravating things about working on an MGB, or any other British sports car, is the position of the hood when it is raised. And that support rod...it is always in the way. To remedy the situation I have decided to install dual pneumatic lift supports on the hood. If I use a 28" support, the open hood position should be near vertical allowing greater access to the engine compartment. They should be relatively easy to install...wish I hadn't said that.
I will be fitting the hood in the next few days and I will post photos of the lift supports installation.
Stay tuned...
