Now this makes sense. I repaired the inner structure of the hood and it did not have this notch. That might be a part of the problem. Let me check all my alignment again and make sure. Thanks for all the advice guys! RGAZ

Can I see a picture of your hood pinch weld near the hinge?

Yes, inner fender wells are replaced. But that does not change how the hood lays in the fender trough. Hood is original and hinges too. Was not in an accident but a lot of the front clip has been replaced.

One more pic, this is the raised area that interferes. See how it comes up way before the back hinge bolt? This is the mating area. I think I will need to either modify the hood pick weld or the fender itself. Up for ideas. RGAZ

It’s clearly hitting that higher area with the pinch weld of the hood.

Better pic… See how the front is deep and by the hinge it is shallow? I don’t have old fender to compare and the drivers is also missing. So nothing to compare to.

I have a 69 satellite fender I am fitting on a 69 roadrunner and it appears that the top of the fender interferes with the edge of the hood near the hinge. It appears to have a form that extends further and does not allow the hood to close. You can see the end of the form at the top pic...

Hawk, Good to see you on Day one. The 73 Duster overheated badly near Augusta and the water pump seized on me, so I called in my rescue ride. Had a great time through the first couple days, but the 6 hour parade out of Atlanta was rough on the old Slant 6. Definitely doing next year. Here...

To answer your questions as best I can: Do I cut out the bad part to the exact size of the replacement panel ? Cut out the rusty parts and remove any rusty part that is spot welded to cross member, seat support, rocker, and firewall. I cut close to the area and then use a pnuematic gun to...

My vote is Single Stage. My reasons: Scratch repair is easier. Buff will be easier. Touchups hide easier. But both will look good if done right. RGAZ

That is what I call ingenuity...until the welds break.

I did not see the video, don't know which car he was working on (that was updated after the post.) Working with gasoline requires safety methods to prevent getting burned. I know most backyard mechanics don't care about safety, but I would expect Jay would be more careful and have PPE to...

Jay Leno got burned in a gasoline fire in his garage... https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/14/entertainment/jay-leno-hospitalized/index.html Enough to be hospitalized. I would hope we all are being safe and not make the rookie move he did. BE safe around gasoline guys (and gals). As a side note, I...

Yeah, that looks like casting sand. It needed to sit on the shaker table post cast longer and it should have spent more time in the cleaning tank post machining. I am a little surprised the assembler did not see the problem. RGAZ
