Thomas , thats the same place as mine is hood is higher there than fender, right?maybe as much as 1/4"....and my hood is an original....no idea on fender..but could be orig. also...I think its just maybe mixing and matching fender from 69 and a 68 hood? maybe GM`s 'tool' was wearing and gave different shape?? I know,that far fetched,but....and not knowing which year Goodmark used as guide for their 400 hood tool??
