I have a 65 mustang hartop, i had all the frender aprons replaced along with the shocktowers, i measured off an unwrecked car to make sure everything was right but now that i have my hood mounted and fenders on something is way off.....my pass side fender to hood gap is an almost an inch with no more adjustment inward left, and the hood wont go down all the way because the driver side fender is in too far and is is adjusted all the way out.....i have a pic of a 69 with what measurements i would need i would really be thankful thanks guys!

 

Put a big blower on it and run with no hood
I bet 60's cars where almost handmade and most were pretty unique. Even on the production line there must have been variances from one part and frame to another. Different sub-vendores made parts that were close and Q/C was...well it was the 60's.

 

all the frame,shocktower,aprons where replaced upon hours and hours of measuring before final weld, i lost all my notes from the build and want to make sure i didnt mess it up somewhere

 

Does the frame flex when moved, sag on stands? That will alter slightly but probably not by an".

 

its sitting on all fours with all new springs etc, no motor in it. ive never noticed any sag when i jack it up

 

someone bust your tape out please lol

 

really need to x out the frame with a frame measuring tool.

 

That^

 

Yep, X out the front end to make sure it's square.

Are you lining up the hood with the cowl vent first?

Using aftermarket fenders I assume?
Bend the snot out of the upper L-flange to tighten up the gap

and the hood wont go down all the way because the driver side fender is in too far and is is adjusted all the way out
Bend the snot out of the upper L-flange to open up the gap

 

yes aftermarket fenders,where on the fender is the L-flange
