37_Roadmaster_C Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I bought one of the hood center pieces from Brian for my Roadmaster and it was a tight fit. It took a little finessing, but it looks and works great. Brian is a regular on the forum and always answers PM's quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38Buick 80C Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 PM sent. I'm sure we can get you fixed up. Make sure the hinge is straight (hold it up side ways and looks to see there isn't a hump in it (some get that way in shipping). Also the hinge should slide on from the back of the hood (closest to the cowl) toward the nose of the hood so the half moon doesn't interfere. do one leaf at a time and grease the male portion of the hinge if necessary. Also try different angles (like as if the hood is partially open). But yeah they are a bit tight I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
