The truck had a mediocre restoration done to it a couple of years ago (prior to me getting the truck). I can't say if the hood alignment issue has always been present since the resto, but it has been there since I acquired it last fall.

Figure 6 in the hood adjustment procedure shows some kind of bracket that is attached to the center underside of the hood near the cowl - my hood is missing this "bracket". What is it? And where can I get one?
