The Hood of the Car was NOT made by AMD. They did not have a flat Hood so we had to go with a different brand. The Hood had “crumple zones” so we welded metal strips to bridge the recessed areas and then applied a thin layer of body filler (over the welds) to make the repair invisible. The heat from welding those areas bowed the side profile of the Hood almost a half inch! It took a couple of hours to fix the warped incorrect curvature. We had to use a 1968 Hemi RT Coronet to remove the bowing from the center of the Hood. Lowering the car from a Lift onto the top of the Hood did the trick! (Pictured below) It took some nerve racking trial & error but it ended up working out perfectly.
Every gap throughout the entire vehicle is now consistent and within Factory spec. I will have pictures of the vehicle showing its complete gray color sometime next week.
