Front panel help

Last weekend I was able to get the front panels looking good. But the problem I am having is it appears the center of the hood is higher along the fenders than where it meets the cowl and front end. Also got my first resto wound. I stood up and the top door hinge put a nice hole in my head. The wife freaked out with all the blood. Oh well that is life.

Hey, we all have given blood to the cause. After a while the quantity of blood has to equal the same amount as the sweat and tears.

I am currently sporting 2 head wounds. One of them I got from the grapple fork on my tractor's loader. Unfortunately, I have no hair on top to conceal the scarring. I hope you do.

Ah yes, every so often the truck gods demand a blood sacrifice.

.....uh oh.....I don't think I've made a sacrifice in several months....I better be on my toes, somethings bound to go wrong pretty soon

I am glad I am not the only one. And it will not be the last time I donate blood
