Funny thing that I saw in the staging lines at BJ auction.

Funny thing that I saw in the staging line while at BJ. The K code was being sold by a restorer who came over to me as he saw me checking the engine bay out. He started to brag how many he had done before. I had a hard time keeping a straight face while listening to him and after seeing the things I saw. My eye was drawn to what looked like carriage bolts with the tops ground flat that held the coil spring cover. I wondered why he had to do that ? Apparently the hood was hitting them when closed. Why would that happen? I could not keep from breaking into a grin when I saw that the hood bumpers were installed upside down  .I wondered how hard that would have been to install them from under the fender and in what reality that would seem to make sense. I have never seen that done before.
