These CVF Racing hood hinges replace the factory spring hinges on the 1967 to 1970 Mercury Cougar. The hinge bodies and arms are precision machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, pivot on sealed bearings, and use gas struts to hold the hood. CVF's patented 6-axis adjustment (U.S. Patent No. 11,002,047) is built into each hinge, so hood gaps can be set without removing the hood. Each pair is offered in a Steel Hood or Fiberglass Hood version. This listing is offered in polished aluminum or C3 ceramic clear coat.
