Angry Engineering Problem

Charles:

I've seen so many hoods sag on the 77-79 models that I've concluded it must have been a Ford engineering problem--or--an attempt to save $.

The hood is just too heavy for those little springs. But the springs from an LTD (similiar-sized hood) are much beefier. Never seen one sag.
