Is it quite common for  A tourer body to have this type of repair ? Are there other things to look out for when you see this repair on an aluminium tourer ( AD  ?)
Looks like it was done quite some time ago.
Thanks

I’ve seen plenty of repairs like that on Chummies particularly ones like that with a reinforcing plate b3hind and flush riveted.

Looks like a pretty solid repair and a vital part of its history!

Yes - almost all original bodied Chummies suffer some damage at this point.

Solid woodwork and floorpan structure can help prolong the inevitable.
