I've used a 3m two part structural adhesive before to glue Freightliner hoods back together. That was fiberglass, but I seem to remember it saying it was good for metal too. I'll have to look into it more. I think I could press the back seam in place and clamp the rest good enough for that to bond. The 3m stuff is amazing, we would glue a fender on a hood then test it by lifting on the fender. If it lifted the rest of the hood and the fixture, it was set. We only ever had one that failed, turned out the adhesive was past it's shelf life.
