Did that with my 87 GL-10 sedan. The hood releas cable was broken so I took the whole thing out and wad gonna install hood pins.  But after I got the motor swaped I forgot about it. Took the thing down the road one way, turned around blasted down rhe road the other way and just as I was about to shift into 3rd at 80MPH I remembered the hood SLAM!!! Up over the roof breaking the sun roof and knocking off the interior light covers on to me. Amazingly it didnt break the windshield, but after that I was sporting the black "carbon fiber look" hood on a blue car way before it was cool.
