And in the 60s that color was called Lime Gold.
Mine had the same front end as the 70. Used to call it a headbanger hood. If you worked under the hood, you know what I mean.

No kidding! PITA
I'm fabricating custom hinges right now, from a volvo...
They have a little butterfly that you can disengage in order to have the the hinges to scissor out all the way and it puts the hood almost on the windshield, lol.
Mercedes use to have those as well.
