Hood Bracing
Posted by BigKev On 2009/5/4 21:40:49
I do have a question for you guys with a 51-54 Packard. If you open your hood up, and press up against the hinges, is the bracing bonded (attached) to the underside of the hood skin? It appears mine is only attached at the side, but not in the middle.
Not sure if the bonding or spot welds came loose at some point. As there is a lot of flex in the hood, and I am worried about it cracking the paint after it is sprayed. I can always as a flex agent the paint, but I figured the hood would be a little more stiff.
