The present invention relates to a hood locking apparatus for motor vehicles, and more particularly to a hood locking apparatus which is adapted to overcome any tendency for a remote control cable to disengage from a base plate of the locking mechanism. The locking apparatus uniquely comprises a reinforcing plate defined at the reverse side of a base plate to straddle mounting end portions defined at opposite ends of the base plate for attachment to the vehicle body and a cable disengagement preventive piece defined at and projected from the reinforcing plate to extend in the direction of a notch formed through the base plate. The reinforcing plate has its one end welded to the mounting end portions in such a manner that a predetermined clearance can be formed between the other end and one of the mounting end portions of the base plate. The cable disengagement preventive piece terminates short of an opening of a notch formed through the base plate with the reinforcing plate having its one end welded to the base plate, and closes the opening mentioned above when the other mounting end portion of the base plate is attached to the vehicle's body by means of a bolt together with the other end of the reinforcing plate.
