I hope to start the restoration this summer of my M38A1 Arctic Top.

I will be reproducing the plywood doors and am thinking of making possibly 10 extra pairs since I will have whatever tooling is needed (if any) set up.

These will be exact copies and as close to original as can currently be made.

Latches, hinges and window frames would have to be transferred from your originals. All holes would be pre drilled or cut out and plywood would not be painted.

Is there any interest in these?

Here's a thought for you Bull, full size paper templates
would ship easily..

Good idea!

The main reason to make a few extra is that I will probably be using marine plywood which is not readily available everywhere and getting a few more sheets is not much more difficult than getting the plywood I need. I also have a wood pattern shop at my business so your getting them from my company which will make them correctly. The doors also have wood ribbing on the inside surface so they are not just a flat sheet that is cut out.

Not sure what the original plywood was but considering how long some of these doors have lasted with exposed edges I am guessing it was marine grade plywood and not just the regular stuff from the lumber yard.
