The hood latch failed, allowing the hood to take out the windshield, so the repair involved removing the broken windshield, prepping the metal against rust, installing the new windscreen, then painting and installing a replacement, aftermarket hood, latch, and cable. The hood was 150, paint about 250, windshield about 250, and the hood latch under 100 with cable.
