I don’t think it’s as much a hood issue as it is that his nose is drooping from the lack of brackets supporting the nose. That’s not good. Too much stress on the nose for too long will make it hard getting it back together and could possibly have pulled the front end off the body.
Get those brackets back in soon. Or get something to support the nose like a tall jack stand while the car is parked.
And of course congrats and good luck!

I'm happy it worked out for you! But while you are still in the claim window, did the nose look like that before it rode for a few hundred miles under the bumper of a bouncing Jeep?

The hood was up like that when it was listed. The seller told me it had to be aligned. I have not really looked at it yet. What brackets are missing? Do you guys have a picture? My AIM hasn't come in yet.
As for the jeep, CRAP!!! I wish I would have noticed that!
