    Is there a diagram on hole location for subrails? Mine was welded together when I got it and had no holes; plus I think I need to trim the cross rails to fit the wood…. Which brings me to my next question. This is what I got with the car. Can y’all tell me what goes where? Thx C9F33030-E194-4DAE-90B2-EFB419AEAD0F.jpeg

    The blocks from the bottom up... Blocks 1 and 2 and 7 and 8 (shims) are for a 30-31 cowl

    I can send you a tracing of the 28-29 cowl block

    Yes sir I found that one, some of my blocks don’t quite match plus there’s a lot more blocks to that. If I have metal cross rails do I need that wood center support?

    The long wood is only for sedans to support the seat brackets
