Question Front End Repair








So I own a '71 Dodge Dart Custom, and I got into a front end collision today. It messed up the entire front end only, but now I can't open the hood to repair it. The two latches to open the hood are bent to the driver's side, along with the hood. What do I do to repair it or move the hood over?

Oh MAN.. That Sucks...
Welcome to the site..
Try to get to the bolts that hold the hood latch and safety latch. Looks like the grill is a goner anyway?

Yeah the grille is definitely bust, should I just break that off anyway to get to the latch?

I think I would wait to see if you get any support from your insurance company before I went digging in.... But take a chit load of pictures before you do anything. Also take lots of pictures when your taking it apart.
