78 Bronco Hood

I have a 78 Bronco that my wife picked up for me, when I was home and looking it over I noticed that the hood had about a 1/4 or a little more over hang on both sides of the truck. Never had a bronco before, always had the 78 pickups. is this normal? the front end don't look like it has been wrecked.
Thanks

Fenders might be pushed all the way in. I beleive there was a little wiggle room in teh fender mounting holes to get everything lined up.

Yes the finders do line up with the doors. What edgethis is saying. I do have less over hang on the back side of the hood and gets worse as it comes forward. But if the finders were pushed in and bolted my front grill would not fit. right now the grill fits. Now I want to get home to check that out. Thanks all for the replys.
