Hi All
I’ve been busy making some alterations to my recently acquired C Cab. I can now sit in the seats and feel comfortable although I’m not a 100% happy with the look of the cushions.
However I thought I might change the Dulux gloss door cards for some vinyl offerings. Well not only was the gloss painted plywood glued and nailed to the substrate but some very interesting door construction was revealed. Seems the drivers side comprises a sheet of thin ply with a ‘frame’ of thicker ply cut to suit. However the passenger side is solid timber neatly kerfed and glued to an appropriate profile. Seems to work though so I’m leaving well alone!
However the door beading on the drivers side is half round T section 3/4” wide and on the passenger side it is a flat T section. Am I right in thinking the half round section is correct for AD Chummys of the period 28/29?
Cheers
Howard
