I had cause to do a few jobs on the car today,and when I removed the door trim I saw writing in the doors ( the doors appear to have been assembled upside down) and the assembly date 10th October 1981, and the car serial number along with one I don't know. I wonder who Roy C is as he assembled both doors (Roy was on one),does any body have pictures of the doors being assembled, I don't think I've ever seen any. 8)

Nice one Chris-I wonder what the number beginning with K means, I guess some of the other numbers are for alignment or something. 8)
