<VV> [FC] Rampside Engine cover NOT bolts

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

Hey guys & gals,
I'd toyed with the thought of using something like the battery door latch,  
and a prop like our car engine lids use, only use two of them... but I also 
keep  a broomstick handy, so that's cheap and doesn't require a lot of 
fabricating...  until the broomstick slips and the lid conks me on the noggin.
:-(
Later,
Lonzo

Bill,
I am thinking about putting a hinge on the front (piano) of  the cover and 
use gas shocks to hold it up.  Will have to fabricate a  latch to hold it shut.  
Then if you are out and about, should that fan  belt break/come off then you 
don't need to mess with a bunch of screws in the  rain.
