Default Re: 2021 plans for your Model A

Hello Ray in La Mesa, good luck with your project. Of all the body styles, the Cabriolet is the most difficult. I spent last June to October mounting the cowl, radiator, hood, doors and finished in October with the quarters, rumble lid frame and the wooden belt rail (had help from a local finished carpenter). All of these parts were mounted and removed at least six times and some (the quarters) close to ten times. It is all about door gaps, making them even and 1/8 - 5/32 in. and placing/removing shims under the subframe. The best to you, Ed
