Back when Henry was making the original 32's he was subcontracting out the manufacturing to 2 or 3 other companies. And guess what, there were different dimensions on the new cars! That's why you can't always get a good fit from original body parts you buy at swap meets.
I think most fiberglass body manufacturers create a mold from an original body (or body parts). Therefore, variations can be making there way into the new glass bodies from Henry's originals....

How did you get hooked on cars?
