I ran a bead of black rtv between my hood skin and the braces.

LOL!! Most of those cars are so opposite of what I like. I don't know what people see in them.

theres supose to be some insulation between the supports and the underside of the hood. even if its there it will have shrunk to a point where it serves no purpose. you could shim it up in some way that it supports the hood from below again. or find some similar material to replace it.

my 72 has the same problem, not bad enough to fix but maybe down the road...

I took some cloth inserted rubber (sort of like the rubber pads you mount under the bed to frame attaching points, and that took care of my "Oil Canning" My painter actually was having a devil of a time blocking my hood and asked me if there something missing, I told him to stop right there, and I'd be right over, five minutes later, he was good to go.......
