I have been looking for the doors for a Bennett 541 and cannot find them. I need two of them.
Does anyone have the specs to build the doors from sheet metal?
Has anyone ever tried to build doors?
Thanks,
al

If Ryan at the Pump Dump doesn't have one, call Bob's Garage. I saw they had ABS reproduction doors for Gilbarco. Maybe they have a door for a 541.
Worth a shot. Good Luck

They would be hard to make frpm flat sheet metal. To many bends and curves. Here is a picture of front and back.  Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I am not sure how to contact Mike618b.
Looks like the bends at the ad glass and display window would be the challenge. The overall shape does not look hard to make - but would need more detail.
Are there other people who have had doors made or make doors?
I have checked the Ryan, etc. They are difficult doors to find.

They are very hard to come by. Over the years I only found two. One went on a pump I bought with one door missing and the other is a display piece.
