Among the many pieces and parts that came with my wife's '27, was a set of what looks like new body blocks.
Does anyone have some pictures of what body blocks go where?
The hood does not quite line up and the front of the body needs to come up every so slight.
I don't see any adjustment. Am I missing something?
I will get a picture of the body blocks that I have tomorrow night.
With luck the body will fit on the frame and be all lined and look right.
Thank you in advance.

Re: Body blocks for a '27
Steve, The reason your body and hood don't line up properly might be because your frame is slightly bowed. This happens where the two arms are on the side of the flywheel area due to the concentration of weight at that point.
