1956 Desoto Adventurer

Received this yesterday. It's a nice car. It's also one of the few I might not send back for replacement. The problem I have is that the hood does not go completely down. It's not a very noticeable problem so will keep it, however if anyone else has this one and could suggest a way to fix it would appreciate it. Thanks. Richard Davis

Richard,while putting the hood down, have you tried applying light pressure to the back of the hood while closing it?

Some of Danbury's cars necessitate first pushing in on the hood, then down. Try that.
