Yeah I think it came out ok, just wanted to share in case someone else was intimidated looking at these without instructions



Now I need some help .... trying to get the hood latch assembly to play nice with the header panel. The latch will not just "fall in place" seems the distance between the header panel and the core support (5.779") and the latch support reads 6.082 ....hmmmm.

The puzzling thing is all the parts on the front end are from this car, except the hood, didn't figure on this mismatch.

I'm no rocket surgeon so if anyone has suggestions fire away ...





If I unbolt the fenders from the header and bolt the latch assembly to header and THEN bolt both to the core it pushes the header panel out past the fenders ...







Suggestions ?? Other 67 measurements header to core support???


Thanks again ....
