Good day,

I have an excellent wood block set to install on the 1927 Tudor but have some confusion with the pieces of this puzzle. No picture on the box so I don't know where all the pieces have a home.


Blocks #1 are fitted to the rear body mount location.

Long block #2 fits under the front seat mounts and has drilled holes that match the seat bracket bolt locations.

#3 blocks seem to want to be installed under the cross rail just behind the front seat rail.

#4 blocks are tiny things of mystery just begging for proper homes.

Does anyone have experience with locating these or perhaps is a real good guesser?

Many thanks,

Joe

This description of the wood for these body styles should help.

This little article seems to direct the tiniest block to somewhere near the front body mount. Interesting that the tiny blocks are anchor points for the splash aprons so that should locate the little blocks.

Here's one of the little blocks forward of the front body mount.

This earlier post shows pic of those small blocks, they go up inside the lower kick riser.

The touring shown has same but slightly different size.

That's a really helpful post, Dan, and thanks for digging this up for me.

The pictures should get me where I need to be so I'll now go spend time with the printouts, the blocks, and the rusty metal.

Much appreciated to all for this interesting trip around the blocks.

The pictures didn't get added to my previous post - sorry about that.

Here's the original block and the measured location ..
