I realize this took awhile and apologize for the less than optimum quality of the photo, but here is a shot of the recycled car siding used in the wall behind D&RGW coach 280......
Photo is from September 13, 1999, at the start of 280's restoration. The recycled siding was not disturbed during the restoration and is still in place in 280 today, behind the metal heat shield for the stove.
