CVF Racing billet hood hinges replace the factory hood hinges on the 1968 to 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle and El Camino. Each hinge body and arm is CNC machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, and a gas strut and sealed bearings are built into the assembly. CVF's patented 6-axis adjustment (U.S. Patent No. 11,002,047) is part of the hinge itself, so hood gaps can be set while the hood stays bolted in place.
This listing is offered in a polished aluminum finish or a C3 Ceramic Clear Coat finish, selected as an option. The hinges are sold as a pair and offered in Steel Hood and Fiberglass Hood versions, and CVF backs them with a limited lifetime warranty.
