Everything lines up bang on with the wings, doors etc as well.....which is very handy! :lol:

YG - nice stuff. I ´ve been waiting for updates on that site - I built up a lot of initial courage and knowhow for our resto from your pictures! BTW, I was tempted to use those panels too, but decided to make them flat and cut to size instead, plus welding a separate hinge cover.
