Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way to repair the hood hinges on my 1960. When I close the hood they don't want to settle down in the rear of the hinge. Enough so it doesn't even touch the cowl seal. I have tried re-piening the rivets that hold it together no luck. Anyone have any suggestions beside an allout replacement. Thanks in advance for all replys as usual!

The problem is that the hinge pins are worn out. I had the same problem with my '55. you can get new hinges from any supplier, like American Classic.
