I believe on the 78 just above the front soiler there is a little hook that you need to pull and it will pop up, then reach under the hood and release the latch. On the 79 and up it is a sort of paddle thing that you pull forward. If the spring is worn you will have to help the hood pop up ( about 2 inches or so)... this can be kind of hard with the long reach and awkward position you are in . On some cameros there was an inside release but I believe those were rare
