Picked up my hood Friday and was able to get it bolted back on. It was the safest place to place out of the way in the shop.
I purchased a set of hinge bolts from LMC truck because I was missing one of the original bolts and one had threads that were questionable. Unfortunately I'm not happy with the new bolts. The should portion of the bolts is considerably wider and I'm not sure how they will work out when adjusting the hood and front clip.
So now begins the daunting task of adjusting the front clip and hood. I plan on following 52Carls step by step procedures from the paint and body tech tips. dance
I'm optimistic it will go smoothly.
