140 engine hood vibration 140-160

It is a 1971.

As described by others, there are traces of something that looks like an adhesive on the inside of the flat part of the center reenforcing rib where it would attach to the hood skin - if it were meant to be attached. The car was repainted and the hood had most of the original paint removed. The only reason I can spot the residual adhesive is that it is actually inside the rib and couldn't be removed. I could spot the stuff through the 1/8 gap between the rib and the hood skin.

Perhaps I will go back to the body guy who did the work on my car and get his thoughts on a suitable bonding agent.
