Hood Not Secure 200 1983

I've begun to notice that above a certain speed (about 55 mph) my hood starts jumping up and down very aggressively on either side. From what I can tell, it looks like air is getting under it.

My concern is that whatever is still holding it in place (such as the latch) will eventually give out and cause the hood to fly up into my field of view. What are some likely failure points that could be replaced/adjusted to fix this problem?

Thanks
