    Thanks Big Rob.

    I am hoping i might have been given a thin metal one by mistake but it appears not. Subject to final confirmation from Greg, it appears i have an original thickness one. I had it professionally fitted by a respected restoration shop and it took a little bit of playing with to get it to sit right. Nothing they could do about the bottom gap/bow unless thin skin is removed, shell straightened, skin spot/plug welded back on and metal work/bog to correct the heat distortion.

    Here is the best fit we could get:

    Sorry guys. Not sure why the photos are upside down!
