Default 29 Tudor body bolts

I am getting ready to put the body back on the chassis & I have a question about the wood piece that is at position #4

There are three other holes in that piece of wood. What goes in those holes???
And if there are bolts--what type & size???

Sorry the pix is upside down--I tried twice and both times the website turned it around.

What body style do you have? I think what you are looking at is the long wood piece that goes across from one frame rail to the other. If so this is or a 28/29 tudor and there should be 4 holes, these holes are for the seat studs that anchor the front seats.

I saved this, it was in a garbage can at an old parts house,..I believe it's a Tudor.
Nice detail of the anti-squeak and the nailing pattern. View,..top and bottom on the same
side..

Thanks for those pictures. This was another question that I had. The piece that you posted looked the same as the one that I removed when I took the body off of the frame EXCEPT for the rubber pad that you show in the picture that is the bottom of that piece. The one that I removed did NOT have those rubber pads!!! Les Andrews book shows a pad. (see pix) Adding to my confusion is the fact that Bratton's part #37240 does NOT include a pad for that wooden body block!!! I have several sets of part #37240, so I can make one if needed (which I am sure that it is needed, now that I can see an old one in your pix)
