ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure provides means for locking the engine compartment hoods of vehicles by a device which is detachably secured to the fixed vehicle body structure below a side edge of the hook and has a threaded upward extension which projects upwardly between the edge of the hood and the vehicle body structure. A nut engages the threads of the upward extension and overlies a side edge of the hood to prevent opening the hood. A specially keyed wrench is required to remove the nut and thus release the hood lock.
