Stuart the sprung rollup curtains were not common and the overhead brackets that supported them necessarily immobilised the hood frame. I believe they were manufactured by Jaken, also manufacturers of solid glass curtains.
Hood frames tend to sag due to joint wear or incorrect tension in the recovery process, I have not seen a hood frame welded solid however many that were held up by a strap or hook or some other contrivance. It is likely that releasing the welds will expose these faults and you may have to resort to frame straps. At least the hood will then fold, good luck
