Door Cards

Original door cards for the Alpine & Tiger were made of Millboard.
As we know this stuff eventually buckles up with damp and age and its now time to deal with mine.

I see a 'man made' plastic sheet is a popular long lasting substitute for Millboard. Who knows where I can obtain a pair made for the low regulator, or a pair of blanks, in the UK?

Graham,

You should be able to get some "off-cut" plastic sheet from your local supplier and they may even cut it to size if you give them a pattern i.e your old one?
