I recently tracked down an early 70's formula hood (functional :headbang ) for my car and not having a truck to haul it in/not wanting to damage it I just drove my car over without a hood and was going to bolt it on right there. I got the thing on and closed it to find that both rear corners of the hood stick up about 1-2 inches above the fender. We messed with it for a good two hours taking out all the weatherstrip, hood bumpers, air cleaner, and even hinges and the still about the last 5 inches of the hood curves up too high. All other areas fit fine. Has anyone ever had a problem with something like that? It is a fiberglass hood by the way.
