have new fenders and new hood that does not have center mold...new inner fenders and original core support. alignment/gap seems good up and until the hood contacts frt of each fender where fenders turn down at the frt. All mounting holes line up from back at cowl to the core support and gap looks good. When I measure at the curve down spot on the hood and fenders that distance across is off to 1/2 inch in other words the hood over laps the top of the fenders. Hood does not fit down in the gap. When you look at the taper of the metal from the stamping of the metal it looks excessive but the space across from side to side on the hood is control and set by a reinforcement at the frt of the hood, the stamping of the metal fits the reinforcement. Hard to envision the hood being off that much. It comes back to the fenders being shaped/stamped wrong at the point of the curve down at the frt. They fit good everywhere but there. Anyone been down this road before on new fenders? Open for suggestions???
