We are having 'issues' with aligning the front bonnet on the 63 ie. it rubs on the top (windscreen side) when lifted. Any tricks for getting this set up correctly?
Put in new seals etc (and made the mistake in hindsight) of taking the bonnet off completely.

Not sure on how to align the bonnet, but that is one VERY nice looking notch you have there!😎👍

If you can't fix it with a hammer,
you have an electrical problem....

Thanks - belongs to the bride. Has had bumpers rechromed and indicator and push button on dash fixed since pics. Pics flatter the paint a bit though, but interior looks sweet.

Don't you have marks where the bolts were originally
tightened onto the hinge arms?

The new rubbers will make it tighter to close, but it
should work.

P.S. Just a tip - digital photos cost next to nothing. Before
and during any dismantling, just fire off some shots to help
your brain remember.
