Wood body blocks
I bought a '29 roadster body from Brookville for a project I'm working on. I've never owned or been up close to an A and I'm puzzled by the box of nice blocks of oak that are obviously to be used between the body and frame. Is there a reference to show which blocks go where? Thanks! (There's a pair of larger ones with two holes each that don't show in the picture but my Mac is giving me fits trying to get the other photo's size down for posting.)

Re: Wood body blocks
Even though oak is a hardwood it is not the most durable wood. Don't leave it bare - coat it with something.

Re: Wood body blocks
You also need frame welting plus rubber pads to align body parts properly.
