Okay. Now I understand. Got the hood looking good. Got the door gap back. Used the Grille, Inner fender, and the hood filler to arrange everything. Took a while to make it all fit. Looked real good, and the hood closer looked good.The hood slid over that post without touching on all sides. I then tightened everything down tight and re installed the fenders. Now it is all off again. The front horns where the bumper brackets go is so much lower than the fender that I had to lower the inner fender down to line up the fender holes. The hood still closes pretty good, but the gap is way to tight at the top of the hood filler and way to wide at the bottom. Glad I am going to retire in a couple of months. I will need the time to try to figure all of this out.
