Default Bad hood fit

I have restored my 30 roadster but did not check the frame out for possable bend. In trying to fit the hood it is forward of the firewall bottom about 1 1/2" on the passenger side. Not as bad on the driver side. I had to put 6 rubber shims under the very front body bolt for hood to be ok, now the doors don't fit and it doesn't look right either. I am thinking bent frame is possable cause. Any help here as to how to check this and best way of going about getting it fixed. thanks in advance for any advice you may have for me. Ron

You need to post your question in the Model A section, this is for questions to the editor about the site not car questions. Few people look here.
