When I have to remove a
hood, I try to take a small (1/8" or so) drill and drill through the hinge strap
into the mating surface, BEFORE I remove the hinge bolts. This allows me to use
a nail set or awl to align the two pieces before I tighten the bolts back
down.

Subject: IML: 1973 Imperial Hood
Removal
I need to swap out the passenger
side fender of my 73 Imperial LeBaron, so I intend on removing the hood AND
the hinges where the hinges bolt to the fender [and therefore keeping the
hinges bolted to the hood]. I am hoping this will keep things easier
when re-assembling and aligning up the hood within the fenders. Am I on
track with my thinking on this?
Anyone have any other suggestions
and/or comments?
