Hood has a bit of crown so checked opening with it up, left it down and held tape in middle for cowl to tip. Stuck finger down at tip to gauge end on tape.

Front with rad support as good guide for straight across - 53” on the money

Rear with rear hood hinge bolt as rough guide for straight across - 52 7/8

Cowl with tape tip held to body, held tape in middle to hood with left hand, stuck finger down to touch tip of hood - 51.5


Will post up gap pics shortly. 69 GTX, 71k miles CA car and never hit or rusted in any way. Car has nice paint that I’m sure was redone, not sure if fenders came off.
