Hello there, just joined from Kent, UK.

A mechanical and production engineer by trade I've dabbled to date with door cards from Ford Capris. I'd post pictures but they were on Photobucket! 😤

What's prompted me joining is I've just been given these.

I said I liked them and was given these from a neighbour's barn clearance. In a sorry state but the wood seems fairly solid just the dowels are rotten. Wouldn't know where to start tbh ref preserving/restoring them. No idea even how old etc:
