[DeTomaso] SORC # 135 Pictures

Interesting.  One might deduce that the hood latch either succumbed to air
pressure forces or body flex was sufficient to cause the latch alignment to
move (or both).

Assuming it was air pressure, is the consensus that high pressure in the
grill area leaks into the trunk and pushes up or low pressure above the
hood lifts the trunk (or both)?
