Hood latch question

[cgster]

Working on getting my hood aligned, but can't get my hood to stay latched. The hood latch bolt goes down into the hood latch and I have to squeeze the release to get it to let go, but the hood isn't going down far enough into the latch when I close the hood. I can manually press the hood all the way down, it just doesn't latch at the right spot when hood is fully pressed all the way down. Not sure if something is wrong with the hood latch area.....or something else. My truck is a 72 C10, the hood is off of a 69-70, so not sure if that makes a difference.
