                Good information.   Since no vendor was called out on the drawing, I can see a Wood Shop using any hard wood scrap they had for this part.

Why waste a piece of wood that has no other good use but is dimensionally close and can be made into this part.

 

More income, less waste.

 

We have a drawing of the side wood piece.   It would nice if someone can verify those dimensions on their Tiger.

My part does not match those dimensions, it is longer and wider.

Also what was used to fasten the wood the body.   I made a guess of a screw but is that correct?

 

1st let verify the drawing, then let’s see if a larger part like mine is also common.

My Tiger is an early B382 series Tiger with a Jensen date in Aug 1965.

 

Curious minds want to know

I don't believe that they would not use w/e they had about. The fact that birch ply looks to have been used for the trunk false floor is somewhat persuasive evidence.  No less than 3 pieces of not Birch have been collected in my brief 10 years of picking Craigslist etc. All three have the holes in the right places not one is Birch.  All three came from parted out or don't throw anything away types.
