How fast

How fast can you drive a W124 with the hood in the fully erect position?

You can see enough under the bottom part, of the hood, to drive the car and scare the crap out of other car drivers (especially if you weave around a bit).

Probably faster backwards than forwards! LOL! Whatever made you think of that? Your hood get locked vertical and you can't release it?

?????

Sounds to me like a good way to bend something around the hinge area, and have a hood that will never close right/tight again.

But - Whatever turns ya on.

Any other questions about what can be done while "in the fully erect position?"
