1966/67 Treasure chest door vs 1965 and earlier

[Mr Margaret Scratcher]

Is it just the louvres and lock hole?

Just wondering if I can adapt this £38 replacement skin to repair my 1967 treasure chest door:

rather than having to buy a complete door for 650 Euros!

The latch is totally different on 67. However, if you weld up the openings on the 65 skin and recut for the 67 lock hole it should be fine.

Just noticed the 67 has TWO vent slots; earlier has 3. So need to remove and fill one as well on that skin.
