I am a few years into my build and finally going to paint/body. I need hood and trunk hinges to finish things off but don't know who's product will fit my build as I have a Detroit Speed front clip. Has anyone dealt with this issue yet? I don't want to have to notch the inner fenders and would rather not use the stock hinges.

You have a few to choose from. Eddie Motorsports, Ring Brothers, and Fesler. Might be one more I think Classic Industries has one to.

Welcome to the site! Good to see another 65 Nova! Here is my Hood hinges I used form my 65
There are Ring Brothers. They sent me a bunch o hinges to try free of charge when I found the right ones I ordered them in open frame. Let me check what they were from. No cutting or fabricating required.

thanks for the help, they look right at home in your Nova. Nice rad support, did it allow some more clearance in front of the engine? Pretty tight with the stock support for me.
