Which Cannon & Co Door for SP SD44R 7399?

[jmupton2000]

Hello

I acquired a still boxed factory fresh undecorated Proto 2000 SD45 a few weeks back (rare as hens teeth in the UK so I was lucky to get it) and the plan following my usual taste for oddballs and one offs is to work it into the unique SP SD44R (ex SD45) Number 7399 in it's Daylight livery.

I have plundered my stock of Details West parts for the usual SP lamps of various types and I have a part to install the ratchet hand brake on the side of the short hood, what I don't have is a door to cover where the rear long hood brake wheel recess is.

I have looked at the Cannon & Company parts list and what I need to know for certain is the correct one to order for the first door on the long hood covering the Proto 2000 modelled hand brake wheel recess.

I think I need either part number 1014 or 1016 but need confirmation please!

Many thanks.

If it the doors under the radiator, get the shorter one, the 1014. The 22x65 is the dimensions in inches. To see if it close to the size, 22/12*3.5=6.4mm actual wide by 65/12*3.5=19mm tall.

Lovely, just measured it and that should be spot on. Many thanks!
