Default Re: roof rib install

How were they put in originally? I have a friend that built all the wood for his Murray town sedan and when everything fit he then nailed the sheet metal onto the wood body skeleton as was done during original construction. Lots of work to get to that point as the sheet metal is the last thing to go onto the outside of the wood frame. That car drove to Sparks with me this last summer and is as sound as the day he finished the restoration. He and his father built all the wood from scratch using what he took off as the pattern.
