Do these two rear trunk panels positions look correct? Do I need to trim anything? Any advice is welcome. Thanks for your time.

Here are pictures of my floor, the seat riser goes about 1/2 half way on body channel , from what I can figure out from old rivet holes.You have to cut clearance for body bolts. Hopefully this helps.

Hello again, this car is a roadster, so your coupe won’t have the curved seat riser for back rest cushion.
 
Thanks Ken for the knowledge that it is hard to tell in the pictures. I was wondering why I wasn't getting any responses. Since posting I have found Vince Falter's Ford Garage Model A Ford Standard Coupe 45B pictures. His website has really helped me. https://www.fordgarage.com Thanks again for your response.
 
Thanks gdmn, That confirms some of my questions that I am doing it somewhat correct. In my pictures I was a little too forward on one of the panels. I found out using my old tire support bracket changed a lot of the dynamics. The new one didn't fit and was really a struggle. Fun FUN in the garage!! It is nice to be at this stage in the project and not dealing with rust!!
