Default Cont'd

Found an old check strap off another Cab 12. Looks very original but I have no way of knowing if it is..

Door recess was a challenge but Max Hedges loaned me an old one to work off.

Phil and Bob.. what'd you guys do here?

Went to a furniture place and the bloke there was very helpful. He said the fasteners of the rubber were known as a Biflicated (Spelt correctly?) rivet and that I should go an see a saddler.

Well I did and this is what he gave me. Again, not exact but very close.

I also got a bridge plate from Wayne Henderson at Corowa. Pretty sure its off an AACO, but after cleaning it up and a coat of yellow kill rust, who cares?

Note carefully applied No.7. Can anyone see how that was done?
