Chassis Packing

[Matt_Harnden]

Hi everyone. I thought I’d update you with my final progress on this issue. Success! After a lot of lifting, packing, unpacking, lowering....repeat.....repeat etc. the body level is much improved (photo). Also, the doors now shut securely as expected. I don’t believe that I can improve on the shut line between the door edge and rear body panel as, at some point in its history, the car has had new rear inner wings and the body is slightly out of line.

   

Thank you to everyone who has provided tips, tricks and ideas.

I have used shims of mahogany to pack the body off the chassis where required.
