ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for restraining a hood of a vehicle body comprises a junction member attached to a corner portion of the vehicle body, where an end portion of a cowl panel extending along a lower end portion of a front windshield is coupled with a wheel apron member, for reinforcing the corner portion, and a hook member projecting from an inner surface of the hood which is provided for opening and closing an opening, such as creating an engine room, formed in the vehicle body in front of the cowl panel, so as to be positioned to face the junction member when the hood is positioned to close the opening. The hook member engages with the junction member in the case where the hood is moved toward a cabin space formed in the vehicle body behind the cowl panel.
