I 'm putting the front sheet metal on my 37 car. Ive bought the pre packaged bolt kits. Without instructions , it is very difficult to do this properly. Does anyone know where I might find a sketch showing what goes where? any help is appreciated, Thanks

I am in the middle of documenting this, see attached pdf. Probably am a couple days from finishing (depends on Honey-do's). Let me know if you are interested.

Gregg, it looks like a good start on a very helpful document when it comes time to putting the sheet metal back on my car. Thanks for putting it together.

OK, I got it. Nope, I never made it there, don't get out much...

Hello,
Finally made some progress on documenting the 37 exterior stuff. Please find it attached as a multipage PDF. Still more to come. If you need anything specific that is missing/incomplete, let me know, and I will try to hunt it down.

just tried to upload it and failed, the pdf is too big (2.071MB).
PM me if you are interested and I will email it directly to you.

The pdf size limit is 9.54 Mb, something else must be wrong. You can email it to me if you would like some help with it.

1937sedandelivery · 01-06-2019, 11:23 AM

not to be picky... you state 9.54Mb. The lower case "b" denotes bits. The file size is 2.071MB, which is 16.568Mb. You probably meant 9.54MB, so I am just blowing smoke, but want to clear this up. Meantime, I will send you the file.
Gregg (I just tried again to upload the file, it failed. FYI, the file is a multi-page PDF if that matters)

I'll take a look at it.

JSeery · 01-06-2019, 12:30 PM

Post for 37sedandelivery. Nice write up!

I'm having the same issue you were. Don't think it is a size issue, not sure what it doesn't like about the file! Anyway, I will post it as jpg files for now.

1937sedandelivery · 01-07-2019, 12:05 PM

Thanks for taking the time. I made a few updates and split it into two files. Will attempt to upload them.

what do you know, it worked, gotta assume it was a size problem???

JSeery · 01-07-2019, 12:42 PM

Cool, and good information.

oswego37 · 01-10-2019, 07:31 AM

Greeg Thanks for the pics. My sheet metal is all bolted up. Ernie

1937sedandelivery · 01-10-2019, 10:38 AM

Super. Looking forward to seeing the finished (or whatever state) project.
Here is one more pic showing the splash pans.

Here it is as a jpg.

Looks like you are getting some good help. I recently reassembled a 36 tudor front end. It was just a bitch! two of us spent about 40 hours trying to get everything back together. It never did fit properly but came to a "good enough" stage. We assembled and disassembled the running boards, fenders, grill and hood several times to get it to just be OK.

Stick with it and try to not hurry. Still, it was a bitch.
