Hood alignment

This is your M-100?
I assume that you are saying one front corner sticks out from the same shape corner on the fender. You may be able to move it some with the rods. I have done that, but if you try to pull too much, it tends to warp the hood shape and give you a problem somewhere else.
What you probably should do is move the fender forward to match the contours. I would move the inner and outer fenders together by loosening the bolts at the cowl and firewall angle. You should be able to get about 1/4". You can also elongate those holes to get more.
I see your truck has a nice paint job. So, when you loosen the fender-to-cowl bolts, slip a piece of cardboard between the cowl and fender and tape it to the cowl before you start pushing the fender forward. That will protect the paint from scratches. You could also use masking tape on the cowl, but I find it harder to do than the cardboard.
If I didn't understand your question correctly...nevermind.
