We rolled the car into the other garage to make room for doing more body work on the front clip. The fenders are coming along nicely, but the hood is giving us trouble. When Cale welded up the hood bird and emblem holes, he warped it pretty bad. I hit it with the shrinker and took a lot of that out, but still have some oil-canning and warpage that is making it hard to get as straight as everything else without having way too much filler in it.

I might call it quits on this hood, and start over with another one we have... and maybe work a little closer with Cale and give more guidance on the next one so we don't repeat the mistakes.
