67 Body Mount Spacers - Pics & Question

[Kirk M.]

I've been working on cleaning up and sealing my frame in preparation for re-stenciling and marking the car. I know it is not perfect, but my car is a driver. I have taken four pics of the three body mounts down the passenger side and was wondering what people think they see by way of the number of shims present - ie: how many slashes do I put for each mount? Have a look and tell me what you think you see. Also, since I have a convertible with the center mount, does that mean my frame will have three sets of slashes? What mark do you make for no shims? Thanks.

I can only make out two shims in the third pic.
The better way to determine the number of shims at each position would be to count the shims as you remove them.
Body mount positions not requiring shims were marked with a zero.

Thanks Mike. I'm not see very many shims anywhere when I look. I'm planning on removing the body, so I don't have the luxury of counting the shims then. That is why I wanted to get some other peoples opinions about what they think they are seeing.

Hi Kirk,
I looked at you photos, and I would GUESS at 2 shims on the mount in the third picture, too. Sorry, I can't tell anything on the others.
Could I drive over this afternoon and take a look?

Alan,

That would be great, but Maryland seems a bit far from Columbus, OH for afternoon jaunt just to check my shims! Do you think additional pics would help or is it just too hard to see them? Thanks.

Hi Kirk,
It was a very nice early Fall afternoon so I thought... through Breezewood, past Pittsburgh and I'd almost be there.
Yes, some more pictures could well help.
