Need long hood gutter measurements help please!
 
Hi all, I am going round in circles getting my hood(s) and new fenders to fit well after a front latch panel and suspension pan change. I think I have all of the old measurement diagrams, and everything seems to be in the right place, and square, but there are few additional measurements that I need from under the hood please if anyone has the time to get the tape measure out.

The most important one is the inside width of the latch panel (#1 in the pic).

#7 is the diagonal down from the latch panel centre to the top edge of the smugglers box /ID panel sheet metal (plan 0 line - just under the green cutting board).

The crosswise one that I forgot to number is directly above the 4th fender bolt holes from the front, not including the M6 bolt behind the horn grill), hole centres.

Anyone please?

Just the first measurement #1 would be extremely helpful because I need to fix that width before I can make the necessary adjustments to the new fenders (latch panel is only spot welded at the front L & R and bottom at present).

Hope someone can help out!

Thanks Jeff ! mucho appreciated!

I added 6/32 on #1 to account for the welds at both ends of the measure. Please let me know if you disagree... I'll check these all against my car later....

Sounds pretty good I measured with a tape at the cabin side of the weld inside edge of the inner fender and was close to 30 3/4 . tough capturing it in pictures because the position of the lens can make it look longer or shorter.

Brilliant - I will go with 30 3/4 in that case, so 781 mm in real money ;-P

Thanks again!

PS. I am thinking about Gemini for my car (car was originally the mysterious 334 met blau, but who knows what shade that really is). Then, the next day its candy apple red, then Ferrari Blue Nero, then Le Mans Blue, then Indigo 3M wrap with silver stripes, then candy apple red with black stripes, then white stripes like the new Heritage Targa.... you get the picture.... :)
