Gentlemen,

While waiting for body work to be completed on my 60A restoration, I am staging the hardware to ensure that I have all available when we go to fitting the wings, apron doors etc.
In Plate AG of the Spare Parts Catalog, I begin running into identificaton problems under AG4. What are the following referring to?

Moulding-front apron-top
Moulding-front apron-bottom
Stud-fixing front apron moulding (9 of them)
Piece-cover reveal moulding

Also, AG4 calls for 4 1/4x1/2 set screw which I assume connects the four tabs on the lower inside portion of the apron. What are the 4 1/4x3/4 Acme thread screws for?

As usual, thanks for all your help and advice.

Although not particularly clear, I believe those refer to the "reveal" molding used around the opening on the 'smallmouth' TR3 apron. You don't need them.

Appears to be a mistake in the SPC. My <span style="font-weight: bold">guess </span>is that earlier 3As used the set screws plus washers and hex nuts; while later cars used the ACME screws plus the FA.3058 'fix' nuts.
