Thanks for the lead. My car is parked off site, so I can't look at it immediately to see how the tube is connected at each end to the hinges. Is it possible to just replace the torsion springs that are inside that tube, or does that involve cutting to remove the tube & then welding it back...

After 46 years they no longer hold the hood up. Looking for the fix. Is there a spring in that long hollow bar that goes across the front of the engine bay? Need advice. Thanks.

Looking for source(s) to replace my headlamps. Must be DOT approved for regular driving.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I have always found the coupe to be very practical & from time to time think about using it full time. If you were to use your coupe for a daily driver in 2016 (except for snow & ice,) what improvements would you make? I know I would definitely want a 5-speed plus a little more power & some...
