Re: Hood to Fender Alignment Questions

If your front to back sitting pretty close, I thinking your hood is bent lightly. I would open and check the under side hood on both side to see if cracked had a fold crease around the high spots if it has not got and crease in it yet. you can use a 2x4x4' and some towels to message the top down a little be gentle small blows lots light and check a lot so you do not go to far. **If it is creased your going to need a new hood. (or can try the hood brace for the 73-80 hoods). You may need piece 2x4 under the hood if it not moving at all in the few blows.
