Hi All,
Have had the nose of my 50 Tudor for repairs, in adjusting fenders aligning the hood I am finding that I am unable to get the hood to latch with the main latch mechanism. Looks to be a tad out of alignment and the latch pin will not go through the latch plate. Any thoughts or tips? Thanks, Steve |

Have adjusted a few by using a block of wood and hammer to move the pin in the direction it has to go to enter the latch.
You are actually bending the underlying sheet metal that the pin is attached to. (or should be)
