Help with box saloon running boards

[Ivor Hawkins]

Thanks Mick that makes perfect sense, I have the strips of wood, at least on one side!

I’ll use identical machine screws for the bottom...not that I need to but you can stand on my running boards, without a problem, there are two nuts and bolts attaching to the front mudguard, three screws going into the wooden strips at the top and another six machine screws at the base of the upstand and they all look original.

I’ve taken a photograph of the upstand upside down so the one attached should by the right way up!
