Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you know of any other cars that the hoods flip forward like the LUVs? The one on my Z is the same! I've just always wondered what other cars were like that! :D

I know some newer buick 3800's have that. I have seen some early 60's Ford pickups that do it but i dont think its stock.

I think I remember a few 70's import, compact cars that did. I could be wrong but I think Corolla, Datsun 510's to name a couple.

OH yea. A neighbor of mine in the 80's had a BMW that had a "bonnet" That flipped forward . And so do the Jag XJE's from the 60's and 70's. 53-56 Ford F100's are very popular to convert to a bonnet when customizing.

I know that the 83 LeSabre didn't have it.
Some of the Accords did, my dad had an Accord hatchback that did.
