The hood was removed so I can replace sheet metal that the hinges mount to. More welding next week. Iwill also remove the other fender and fix that inner mount location as well. The Mopar cars B-Body are all known for the hinge mounts rotting out. This is because they are built by overlapping raw metal. It is a manufacturer defect because moisture sits between the layers of metal and rust forms. The replacement part will be galvanized for protection.
