I have noticed this since the day I got the car, but never had any explanation for it. I'm not sure if this is typical on 87-91 models...but....on my car, the passenger side of the front hood about half way up has a very strange convex bow to it. Almost like a camber, if you look straight on from the side, it doesn't align flush with the fender.

My neighbour has a 91 SE and his hood does the exact same thing in the exact same place!! Do any of you guys have the same thing?

I will take a picture tonight and post it....in case you are confused

Cool...its a common thing then, I'll post up the pics tonight after I go out. Busy night tonight, I'll get to it tho. I wonder if anyone has a solution or a reason why it happens

I never heard of that before. But my first 3800 was an '87 LeSabe and that had the clam-shell hood.

How do you change the radiator on one of those?

I know...I know, no pics...pics tomorrow

Uh ya, how is the rad removed with a clam style hood?

With a tree while in a 4-wheel drift at 85mph. Works very well. No need to even open the hood.

Are we talking from experience now?...or Hector? did you forget to mention the tree incident the same day you fragged your tranny?

Thats sounds kinda like a funny story what did homie do?

As promised





Is this fixable or are we screwed?

And Boat called my car a rust bucket...look at that PAINT...oh ya
