front tilting hood

I have a 26T with a 3 piece hood.It hinges on the right side since the top is attached to the one side cover I can't run with just the top part as I would like to sometimes.Does any one have plans to make the hood hinges that makes it go up and tilt forward? Or any suggestions? And please don't tell me where I can BUY set-ups for $3or$400.00..

I don't think I can use any stock hinge because a Model T has nothing in fron to bolt to.I thought I saw one somewhere that had flat or angle running from the radiator cover back to the firewall on both sides and some kind of hinge set-up attached to them,but I don't remember where I saw it or any details
