When I put a hood or trunk lid off or on by myself I use my cherry picker and some ratchet straps, it takes fiddling with but better than trying to manhandle it by yourself

In the Body shop, we put the porta pac inside the truck w/ some added support and pushed outwardly applying pressure evenly along the panel until got the desired contour

I don't have a porta power but I do have a come a long. I tend to bolt through to the inside of the trunk and hook the other end of the come a long to an anchor (usually my pickup truck) and then crank on it until one of the two starts scooting. Once something starts scooting, I break out the torch and start warming and tapping with a hammer. Not that it gets any better results... Good luck.

Hey John. I'm looking for 68-72 2 door stainless steel drip rail moldings. Do you have any idea where I can find a set. Need both sides for a 1970 2 door nova. The after market stuff is junk. Trying to find original moldings.
