Default Re: 1996 buick hood

it happened to me once on my wifes 84 regal. I removed the trim by the
drivers footwell where the cable was mounted to the inside of the car, cut
off the outer cable covering and was able to pull the inner cable with vice
grips. I had only pulled of the knob and about 2 inches of inner cable.

I guess if all else fails you can put the car on a lift, remove the splash
shield and get to the underside of the hood latch.
