Hi:

Have a 49 model 3100 panel truck, recently reassembled after painting and the hood now for some reason does not close/fit properly. The rear of the hood when closed sits about a 1/2" up above the cowling and does contact the rubber seal along it as it should. Before the hood was removed it fit well, but it does not now. I tried to adjust the hinge brackets on the side of the cowling with no results. Please, what am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help.

Dave

That's a frequently asked question. Check in the Tech Tips for an answer.

Just wanted to know if you ever figured this out. I am have the exact same issue. Found the Tech Tip today and will try this soon, but would be nice to know if this resolved your issue, or any tips you have?
