ABSTRACT:
The vehicle, specifically a truck, having a tilt-forward hood is disclosed herein along with a pair of hinges mechanisms for pivotally connecting the hood to the front end section of the vehicle's main body for movement between a completely closed position and a fully opened position. Each hinge mechanism includes a main assembly movable between various adjustable positions for adjusting the position of the hood with respect to the vehicle's main body when the hood is in its closed position and a manually engagable member for moving the main assembly between its various adjustable positions in order to adjust the position of the hood. The main arrangement is located entirely under the hood when the latter is closed, whereby to hide it from view from outside the vehicle. At the same time, the manually engagable member is readily accessible from outside the vehicle when the hood is closed, whereby the hood can be adjusted without its having to be opened.
