Anybody got any ideas what these two strips of leather were used for, og to the bus so back they go on plus the 4 holes were still there for the screws
Phillips head screws so no doubt a later install

Been trying my hand at a bit of Rolf Harris minus the wobble board and his other jail-able offences
Got the craft paints out and patina the quarter vents to match the door tops

Front door car resto or rejuvenate or just embrace what I have
Turn out the maggi rich gravy mix container is a good fit for inside the door pockets
