s10 swap-help needed-alignment of front clip
Guys, I'm trying to get the front clip aligned on my '48. I have the truck tires on casters currently. The fenders/grill are bolted onto the truck, but the problem is the bolt holes are enlarged from rust so there is quite a bit of slop. How do I know when it is leveled properly side to side and front to back? Are there measurements that would help guide me? do I just lay a level across the top where the hood would sit and get it level side to side?

I followed the stovebolt instructions on mine and it worked perfect! See my build thread for pics on the gaps I ended up with.
