I had just the opposite problem on my '41 Fordor. the hood sides were way out away from the cowl. After years of messing with it I removed the hinge springs and it fit perfectly. tried all the tricks and NOS hinges. went with a prop rod. A friend of mine painted his '47 and when we attempted to install the hood, it hit the cowl in the center and sides were 3" too high!
