Hey all, I boggled and wanted to pick some brains.. ended up painting without aligning the hood as I was having Willie rebuild them. Now I am stuck, not my first or 10th rodeo but this has me boggled. As you can see I'm squared up with my cowl panel and things are really out of line.. if I make any attempt to fix the gap on the right side I hit my cowl panel on one end and have 5/8 gap on the other. I restore alot of abody cars and often move the core support for some adjustment but the room to move them on these trucks is limited.. anyhow here are some pics for your pondering..

Any attempt to close the gap at the cowl just adds to the nightmare up front. I at one point has her closing with horrible looking gaps. Fenders are square or at least close enough.. I can get the left side gap nice but I'm way out on the pass and against the cowl.
