i put the fenders on and then the hood get all the gaps rite and then put the rest together

unless it is a 67/8 then you would want the grill on when adjusting the gaps

I always do the core support (but don't tighten it) fenders then the hood. move the core left or right to square the hood gaps. Tighten down the core support and go from there
