Hi again,
Just two questions about how things SHOULD be on my friends 1954 100-4.
First, the rocker cover securing bolts (hollow bolt things, as original).
Shouldn't the securing bolts only tighten down to a point and then stop so as
to avoid deforming the rocker cover downward toward the head? When we
tightened the bolts on my friends car, we noticed later that the rocker cover
is bent down at both bolts. We both are assuming that the bolts should snug
up without bending the rocker cover! We are not over tightening them.
Second question refers to the front shroud body area directly below the
grille. We found A LOT of Bondo here, which was odd as there is almost no
damage here at all. Anyway, from the bottom of the grill opening, moving
downward, what should the shroud look like here? What I mean here is, should
the panel be totally vertical, perpendicular to the ground, or should it slope
slightly forward as you move downward from the grill opening?
That's all for now. :)
Thanks
Paul B.
