Hi,

Ok so i muddled up the box covers i have , could you tell me which type is the correct one for my 52. They both sort of fit in the gap but one is much smaller with a metal screw head, the other looks like its a plastic screw head. What year is the other type from?

Hey Mark, I could do with that one on the right for my 51' Panel, it is missing the cover from the pod fuse box......any chance? Wink

I thought it was the ones on the left with the plastic securing knob that are repro'd, I haven't seen the smaller ones on the right repro'd but let me know if you hunt any down Wink

i had a block purchased from WW a few years back and i recall it being about the same size(right) comparison as photo'd above with a later regular size block. also using a steel screw. unfortunately i dont recall what i had done with it. i may have sold it . if youre not specifically looking for original,maybe give them a try. ask for dimensions before buying?

cheers Mark, very much appreciated and it is a good back up if I can't find a used og one...it is to go on my 51' Panel (pics here in the barndoor gallery or on my website 'In the workshop' page) so ideally I would prefer the 'patina'd' look that would go with the rest of the bus Smile
