FITTING THE HOOD

We now have three projects going simultaneously in the shop.  John is working on Tim's fiberglass hardtop, Don is repairing the floor pans in his MGB and I am fitting the hood on my "B".
It appears that I underestimated the amount of time required to fit the hood.  I had a assortment of hood hinges and as it turns out only two good ones.  I spent most of the day aligning the hood.


I also fabricated four mounting brackets for the lift supports.  I will be fitting the supports to the hood and body tomorrow morning.  The latch components including the release cable have already been installed and lack only minor adjustments.

Stay tuned...
