Re: My 1954 Chevy PickUp-truck

Hello again...

..today i give a question to all of you:
Would it be possible to get some pictures of your trucks hood fitting?

Yesterday i was at the bodywork and i / they get a BIG problem:
After assemble the front of the car the hood doesnīt fit exactly - means that the hood collide with the fenders in the frontest position (sideways to the hood latch cover / behind grill). I think the hood should fall "through" the fenders with a little gap but i canīt go wider with the fenders because of grill and radiator-support fittment. So what to do now??? How does it look at your truck? Have you got the same Problems?

The next big problem on the hood is, that the sheetmetal ending in front of the windscreen / cowl vent is very flexible...so also here: Can you please send me some photos from yours cowl inside in this area? Isnīt there any reinforcement?

I hope you understood all of my stupid english - sorry for that bad arranged words.

Regards from germany,
yours (frustrated) Robin ...waiting for your help/pictures/constructive words
