Re: [VACList] cabinet reinforcement?



Polly:

   The wood portion of the front cabinets in my 1964 Globe
Trotter have also come apart in the past.  A former owner
used some wood screws and "L" brackets to hold mine
together, but the better fix would be to take the wood door
and frame assembly down, knock it apart, redrill holes for
new wood dowels, glue and clamp the wood frame together,
reinstall, then reattach the doors.  The fiberglass support
on mine still looks OK.  

   We will have a number of 63-64 GT's at LaVeta next
weekend, where I and others can give you more repair ideas. 
Look forward to seeing you there!
