I have about determined that when a body needs to be shimmed, it is because something else is wrong. It generally is because the frame is bent, -or the body blocks are the incorrect thickness compared to original prints. Just remember, Ford's assembly line workers did not need to spend time on shimming the body so doors would fit.
