inner fender installation

[freds]

Hi, I'm rebuilding my 1967 Chevy and presently attempting to reinstall the inner fender and I'm lost on two specific corners. at the rear corner of the inner fender there is a 1" square hole that doesn't match to anything square on the fire wall that I'm aware of, now in the same location on the fire wall there is a bolt hole with a large washer but nothing square. now, someone mentioned something about " F-shaped " shims. how do they come into play ?. Second question, on the front end of the fender is it part of the radiators alignment hole ?. thank you

special bolt with large washer goes thru square hole loose then F shim is installed behind inner fender over the loose bolt .

You only need the "F" shims if there is a gap between the inner fender and cab support runner. You may need more than one on one side or the other.... After you insert the shims tighten the bolt up.

I have never used the F shims as the inner fender will conform readily.

You are very lucky. Many times it doesn't.
