Talk Morgan Forums Community Vehicle Talk (non-Morgan) help needed - 1932 Wolseley Hornet

Gentlemen:
a fellow Morgan driver is currently restoring a Wolseley Hornet four seater drophead with a swallow body. What we cannot figure out is the dimensions of the floor wood panels and their fitting to the chassis. The driver´s side has two "rails" which run parallel to the chassis and would carry the floor panel, but on the passenger side these rails are probably missing.
We also did not yet figure out how to fit the driveshaft cover and the "surrounding" of the gearbox inside the cabin.

Does anyone have access to such a car and could help with some photos?

Any help appreciated,
Andreas

I used to be a member with my 1948 Wolseley Eight Police car
many years ago

There's also a register for Swallow-bodied cars of all types (mostly populated, from memory, by Austin 7 owners which is my erstwhile and tenuous connection, but apparently it has since expanded to include other marques). www.swallowregister.org

If it's a peculiarity of the Swallow coachwork rather than the Wolseley chassis, there may be someone there who can help.
