Jim,

The bad news is our cars are simple to steal, easy to open the doors, and
easy to 
hot wire. The good news is, most of the young kids don't have a clue if it
is anything 
past slamming out the ignition and using a screw driver for a key.

I have always put a secret switch on mine that grounds out the coil. I split
the wiring 
harness and sneak it back inside the firewall so it is impossible to see.
Makes it almost 
impossible to steal by someone that is not old school. It does however make
it impossible 
to start if you forget to turn it on. I have a friend that went one step
further. He used a 
marine switch made to turn off the power. The only issue with that is it is
hard to hide.

OK, so the '65 Coronet 500 finally has it's hood back on, with the
Hemi-style fiberglass scoop.  

What's a good way to lock hood?  I bought a remote hood release kit one
time, but it looked pretty cheap-o when arrived.  Have seen post-type/latch
pin arrangements.

And, how about car alarms in general, it's time to get some reasonable
security as I drive the beast increasingly often.

PS, while driving this morning on way to get hood installed, an old guy
without all his teeth in a 50's rust-bucket pickup truck pulled up, and I
"poop" 
you not, hollered "That thing got a Hemi?".  He was serious, too, not
joking.
