the pivot pins aren't really my problem, both of my sets of hinges (2 cars, 2 sets  ) have twisted rather badly and one of the hinges is seized. i could get it moving again but as many times as i've tried straightening those hinges the bonnet still doesn't lift properly. i'd make a bad design call but i guess something that's lasted 25-30 years in most cases can't be too bad. might just have to use the best ones i've got til i can afford a new set. those turn and lock things you're talking about, are they like the ones you turn 90 degrees with a screwdriver to lock or unlock, you see them on the more expensive body kits sometimes......... they might be a plan if i can come up with nothing else. as for lifting the bonnet, i can take it off by myself, its just finding somewhere to put it down that it doesn't get scratched, and yeah, i guess it would make for a bit of a bitch if you wanted to check your oil and water in the gas station or something,
cheers
Matt
