Default 1933 / 34 passenger running boards.

Just want some clarification on how the boards were fixed to the chassis originally with orientation of nuts / bolts.
Some fixings are obvious like to the rear guards where carriage bolts are used, but with the others are the nuts on the inside of the chassis or under the boards, and do the ones where the front guards fix to the boards have the heads facing forwards and the nuts under the boards.
Thanks
Graham

Bolt heads forward on the front guards (fenders) to running boards and nuts and lock washers under the running boards where they attach to the chassis frame. From a assembly line perspective, no other way makes sense.

You're welcome!


P.S. Don't forget the 3/4" flat washers under the bolt heads for the front guard-to-running board attachment.
