We had sort of the same issue with my Dad's Dart hood, So my paint and body guy came over and with the hood up, gave it a big shove to the side that needed less gap. After a couple times of "tweaking" it that way, it fit fine.
I tried that first but being the fenders are on theres not much I can push it before it wants to bottom out up against the fender. I need to get wheels on the front so its more stationary and don't try to move on me. I will try that again. once I get it on the front wheels.Thanks
I did more todaygot the main brake line in gas line fits like crap I am ready to order a fuel line from inlinetube. The one I got is from RS.
Got rear springs in and rear! Also painted the lower control arms!
