But I was faithful to the original construction method so pressed on.

The original tin sheeting was too far gone to reuse,with the exception of a few corner sections, so I had new sections folded up locally. All the flat sections were easy but the inner wheel arches proved a bit harder. I think these were made up using a Jenny Wheel (?).
