Thanks David, super-sleuth, the only problem is that the cable seems only to be available in black. The original is more 'sack-cloth', so I am going to investigate the rugby shorts waist tie and then sew it into a tube and turn it inside out ..... wish me luck !
This week we have started on the other side, removing the redlead and as much of the filler as possible, so we can see what lies beneath. The front wing was a pleasant surprise. The bottom had been welded/braized but is good and solid. The line had been lost along the sill and I was worried when Dog asked for a bolster chisel ........
Because the metal is so solid, he has been able to work his magic and has remade the line without the need for thick filler, just a skim to make it smooth. The rest of the wing is excellent, a couple of small dings to knock out and the old repeater hole to weld up. Really happy with the panel fit
Coat of primer next week
