Thanks Russell, I found the thin birch ply, available in 2 or 3 mm locally, so will get some and give it go.
Like the photograph Ruairidh- I reckon with the standard of my craft skills I will get it looking pretty much like that from new!
My chummy is pretty tatty anyway, which is how I like them.
I daydream about some old Rexine which has been buried in a shed for 70 years....
Some time ago I had a nice old Grahame White cyclecar, which came with a fantastic early chummy rear seat back section- totally original and serviceable- I wish I had kept that now.
You live and learn (apparently).
