MORE ON FITTING THE BONNET

Over a half an inch of shims were required to locate the bonnet lock receivers in their proper position.  Each of the shims are 1/16" thick.














After the proper height was determined,  blocks was fabricated to the correct thickness and shape.  Not quite correct, but definitely more pleasing to the eye.













Next the hood lift assembly was permanently fitted.  Some alterations were required in order to relieve some of the pressure created by the lift spring.













Stay tuned...
