Hello,
My car is a 74, has had no body damage and appears very straight. The only problem is uneven gaps in the headlight area. Has anyone come up with a logical sequence of alignment of the three components mentioned in the thread title? I have gone at this three times now and always end up with unsatisfactory results. Thanks, Jack |

The head lights adjust more than you think. Like others, I line up the gaps on the hood and spend the rest of the time adjusting the headlights and then the valence.
On the ABM, I had to adjust the latch too. Something changed when all the parts were zinc coated... Little stuff makes it a pain to line up. |
