Hot Rods All You model A hot rodders wood or no wood ?

you guys running the model A frames and body, What do you do between the body and frame use the factory wood or bolt that ****er to the frame. How does the doors and hood match if you run without the wood. Im a visual learner so if ya have pics post'em

 

the wood is about 1 1/2" this isw for clearance use the wood. take a look at my '31 coupe in my album. its on original frame jan bogert i built that car in 7 months from a barn/field find. if you need help with some things e-mail me at janbogert@gmail.com it has a s10 t5 in it, weber 2barreldown with alum. intake, cintrifical electronic igition, tube header,2"dual ex. with smitty gl***packs.

 

Wood block sets like original are available from any Model A Ford parts vendor:
Car-Line Mfg. in Beaumont TX makes them. 409-833-0757

 

you need the wood and a shim kit to mount the body and get the doors to open and close.you can learn how to ajust the body @abarnyard.com.they have step by step instructions with pictures.

 

well I was just wondering without the wood would everything line up.... with the wood the cars sits kinda high on the frame

 

Thanks

 

Thank you I have the old wood blocks under the car now
I guess to get rid of the wood you need to build a new frame and sheetmetal the floor in...Ill spend some time with the search function
