    I have a spare panel (small straight panel) that goes below the door which you could use by cutting off the rotten section and welding it on.I bought 8 shelters some time ago,some sold and some donated to museums,just kept enough to do one myself with a few repair bits.Theres a great assembly video on you tube.

    `Stirlings in Action with the Airborne Forces`by Dennis Williams is a nice read if you can cover the bomber and transport roles with other books.

    My great uncle was killed on this raid aged only 19. I was told they were based at Beauport estate in Hastings before the raid.We used to go there every year as it was a caravan park and a relation had a big static there.I found a 50 cal bullet right outside the caravan in the woods.

    Wouldn`t think you`d have much of a problem finding a home for it,the metal cased ones fetch decent money.
