It's funny but they all do that. If yours was not doing it before there
must have been something wrong!
Seriously, check for wear on the INSIDE of the front brass hinge bracket.
The hinges wear a groove into these and can then ride forward. The cowl
might also need adjusting, the bolt holes are elongated to allow this. If
all else fails there are these little triagular rubber thingies you can put
on the bonnet corners which seem to solve the problem. Melvyl amongst
others probably stock them.
