Oh Wow Stephen what you’ve got there is the extremely rare “Porta dell'armadio GTA“ Modification. It was only available in the UK And was specially developed to give just the right amount of flex for british bottoms
The German market got a 10mm thick steel insert.

Damn I've broke it now! It was well made I don't know how they got it in , none of the springs are broke so I don't know why he did it ,I've asked him, as I found last owner on Facebook ,but I don't know if he'll reply or believe him if he does ,he said this was mint when he put it in a barn 20 years ago!
