Hinge to hood question
Happy summer to all (or not depending on your address I suppose),
I am working on Sally's hood at this point; need to redo some spot welds that have popped loose and fix a few cracks in the rear support under the hood skin. On each side there is a threaded block which accepts the hinge to hood bolts; on one side the block slides left and right a bit....on the other side it does not move. I assume it SHOULD move L to R as the hinge is slotted from front to back. Just want confirmation before manipulating the rear support to make the non-moving one move and doing the necessary welding. Thanks for any advice, wisdom, or knowledge.
