To open the hood:
1. Locate the release: Look under the dash, near the left side of the steering column. It might be a small lever that you pull or a small, round knob you rotate. Sometimes it's hidden behind a small panel.
2. Pull or rotate the release: Once you've found it, pull the lever or rotate the knob. You may hear a clicking sound.
3. Lift the hood: Go to the front of the car and lift the hood. There's usually a small latch at the front center of the hood, near the grille. You may need to apply a bit of upward pressure to overcome the hood latch.
Important Note: If you can't find the release, consult your owner's manual. If you don't have the manual, you can try searching online for a 1978 Chevy Camaro Z28 owner's manual PDF. Failing that, a local mechanic or a Camaro enthusiast forum might be able to provide assistance.
