    There's a market I'd be interested for starters....seems to me it's a top hat section spot welded to a flat plate.....if I was still back in the smoke I'm sure any sheet metal shop could replicate it
    My new project sorry door bottoms

    Cheap enough from the UK plus all the usual local suppliers carry them.

    Door Bottom repair piece - Paddock Spares

    Might be worth trying a sheet metal works but for a limited quantity it may work out more expensive.

    Thank you Charlie,
    For doing the test run for me.
    The Gal sections, are an improvement on the OS ones available.
    I cannot find drain holes, on the doors I have. So these would improve things also.
    Finished section will be, as per Original profile, with flat plate spot welded to 'Top Hat' section.
    Looking forward to receiving mine.
    Colin needs to get his order in..
    Thanks again, for the time put in experimenting.


    Whitehillbilly.
