Thanks Howard;
I was thinking of placing the 'J' hooks into the holes in the hood where the 'pins' go, and then figure-out the CG problem with an adjustable lifting point concept. I will be lifting the hood straight up & down. You could also do that with your cherry picker process . . . just as long as the car has wheels installed. I'll add a set of anti-rotation cords so the radio antenna doesn't get clipped when the hood is free of the car. I know a lot of 'baby bird' owners used lifting slings to remove the roof of their T-Bird.
