I bought this car a couple years ago and even though so many things go wrong with all the custom bodywork i still love it. anyway, the previous owner (which passed away) chose to customize the hood by making it open european-style from back to front...like corvettes do. Anyway, the hood release cable has rusted up beyond repair and i tried everything to try to fix it but finally gave up... none of you will probably be able to id it but i at least need some help trying to find some kind of replacement or something. theres pics and further info here:
