Front hood hinge busted 200

Easy fix with a used one from a bone yard. I wouldn't drive too long without a complete hinge, I assume you've still got one of the two solid pieces holding it on. The hinge changed slightly in the mid-80s. Look for the hinge with the double spring. An older one will work, but you'd want to replace the pair. Have someone hold up the hood for you while you do the job.
