Hood coming open when driving

Wind pressure ripping it up. Not as crazy as you would think, and the swing gives it extra force when it pulls up.

My fiberglass hood came off at 120mph in my `72 AMX.
The metal frame stayed put but the force of the air ripped off the "skin"
Most aren't fiberglass. I would expect those to break off.
