Hood hinge issue. Help needed

Moparone said
We are assembling my sons 71 Dart Swinger. Have the hood fitting well and am finally happy with the gaps and overall fitment. However I noticed the driver side hinge is rubbing the fender when fully open. The passenger side gap is tight (1/8”) but clears. I really don’t want to move the fender out as it lines up nicely with the cowl and door. I looked at my brothers 74 dart and he has an 1” clearance. Is this supposed to be this tight? Any way to adjust or do I need to rebuild the hinges. They do not seem sloppy. I the pics show clearance but is only about 3/4 open. If I open fully it tightens up. Also note I have protective tape on the fender. Any help or advice would be appreciated

My 69 Barracuda hood was doing the same thing. My hinges were so sloppy that each one bowed way out, and it was hard to shut the hood. During the restoration, I had the car completely blown apart, so I searched the internet and found a guy who rebuilt Mopar hinges. I called him, and he guaranteed me his rebuild would fix the problem. The rebuilt hinges were amazing, and the problem was solved I wish I could remember the name but try Google. He may still be out there.
