ABSTRACT:
A hinge for removably securing the rear portion of a hood to a powered vehicle. A rod fixed with the hood is pivotally received by a hooked portion of a mounting member fixed to the vehicle. A protruding member fixed to the hood is positioned beneath a finger portion of the mounting member for preventing the rear portion of the hood from shifting vertically during operation on irregular or bumpy ground conditions. When opened, a limiting member abuts the lower portion of the mounting member. The hood is removed from the vehicle when the hood is partially opened by shifting the rod through an opening in the hooked portion.
