Greetings from South Africa,

Any suggestions how to get the panels and doors to line up properly please ?

 

I know they were not build perfectly but adjusting one side is lifting the other etc etc.

Surely after 89 years someone has figured out the magic 🙂

Will appreciate a whatsapp call or on the forum here would do. Much appreciated gents.

 

Thanks,

Charles.

Jim Carter truck parts sells cab mount kits. They probably can help. https://oldchevytrucks.com/1934-1946/cab-related-parts.html

@steve-d @charles-heyneke

I make the cab mounting kits that are sold by Jim Carter, The Filling Station, and others. Six of the eight mounting points have (2) 1/8 inch, thick webbing strips. These can be moved from one location to another to another to align the doors.
