Hood opening

I forgot to put the window up in Hg when I was packing up the engine drop for the night. I'd already laid the hood down and the battery was on the floor behind the seat, and Hg has power windows. So, I just picked up the front of the hood for quickest access to toss the battery in.


Man.


1st-gen looks *really* odd with backwards opening hood.

My little orange thing is like that. It is kinda weird looking. I've gotta bolt (nut) the hood down.
