Default Body assembly video/instructions

Anyone know of a pretty detailed how to or video for assembly of a 30 Coupe body? I think I am doing pretty well but all I've found on You Tube is how to replace wood with steel or how to weld the body to the frame. This body is stock as close as I can make it. No chops or extra welds.

This is one of the weak areas of restoring the Model A. There is very little detailed info on rebuilding the bodies. You'll find all kinds of mechanical info right down to a hardware book that will list every bolt in the chassis but you won't find it for the body. I looked for years to find the right roof bow brackets for my 28 Sport Coupe.I had no old parts, no pictures, no cars to look at. After about 4 close tries I finally found the right parts. I rebuilt a 30 Coupe body piece by piece so if you have any questions PM, me. JP
