[jack neville]

Jake has two pair of rear doors so I fitted a couple to check the rear body for square. It all looks encouraging but will need bolting down to the chassis before we decide it is good enough.
This is the first time we have had a decent look at the doors and none of them are good enough to use. Either too much rust or too dented. they are pretty simple and are made of two similar halves that wrap around each other with the long hinge sandwiched in between. First to do was open one door up for patterns. The hinges can be sandblasted and re-used. The doors have cardboard inside as insulation and being 75 odd years old the cardboard is tinder dry and easily caught fire as I cut them open with the angle grinder. No doubt the rusty interior has something to do with the cardboard. We will fill the new doors with something else.
