Does anyone know of a diamond tilt hood for the Cavalier? I've already done a search on here and there is nothing.

haha sorry guys just pick up a hindge if you want it that bad the idea will come to you. put it this way i only had to mod the hood to mount the hindges. they are mounted in factory fender holes for the bottoms.

and i dont have any close ups of the hindge. since the car was stolen i havent had it since x-mas but should get it back soon

I think they were on the LaSaber or something like that. It was a 4 door car that my sister had and was a mid 80's car.
