I've never done it on that model car, but have removed many hoods in my day. I mark the position with soapstone and with a helper, remove the bolts and just lift it off. Is there something special about the setup on this car?

Don't forget to unplug any wiring, such as underhood light. And if it has washer fluid going to it, disconnect the tubing. Other than that, scribe where the bolts line up, so you can reinstall it the same way.

4 bolts why what is the problem? you will need two people .

No wiring or hoses connected to this hood. Just make your alignment marks and unbolt.

Thanks everybody. No problem, just planning to paint it. Seems like it would be easier off the car.

That's smart. That way you don't have to cover the windshiled and other parts to protect them from overspray.

? more things to scratch trying to put the hood on a newly painted car. you have to cover the windows and top anyhow.
I would leave it on the car.
