EDIT: Playing find the spot weld on pitted metal is not fun
I think I'll still use my original hood. Mine was sweet except for the patches from the bogus hood pins. Not too happy about engine heat Vs filler shrinking issues. not to metion hood slamming etc. Since I applied the current "All Metal" brand body filler a few years ago I should be good on the filler shrinkage issue. The spare hood has minor pitting above the battery area otherwise mint
