Work progressed today on fitting up the window pan I previously fabricated.  This included repairing the part of one of the side channel  fittings that hold the bottom glass in place (fixed light) with solid aluminium rivets, fiddly but necessary as the channel had come away from the main section of the fitting.  I also had to reattach the droplight  stop block which, for some inexplicable reason, is riveted to the main fitting, thus preventing removal of the droplight with the window pan still mounted in the bus.

Next I fitted the Delrin corner pieces and blocks to which the droplight frame screws.  I touched up a bit of the paint that got scratched off during the various drilling operations.  All that remains is for the top horizontal to have blocks mounted for securing the window top seal rubber,  then the glass can be fitted.
