Every thing you have described and more i have done! Line up tools,filing and tweaking to make fit is (to Me) BODY WORK, and fitment and tweaking are pretty much the norm,
I have a 58 Chevy Cameo truck that has a world of fitment issues,Due to at the time trucks down the assembly line were not given the love that you would find on the Cars during that time!
Model A's on the other hand probably fit well during their Birth but look how old they are now and were they probably have been and how many times they were rode hard and put away wet, I know the older i get i personally have fitment issues!!! LOL...
