RE: Modified Southern Belle
I'd think that sheeting the front part of the top of the fuse stringer area would be good, it looks like the stringers are few and far between, but the back part looks like it should be ok without sheeting, as there appear to be more stringers closer together back there.
It may be easier to sheet the front with the stringers gone, just sheet on the formers, but since the stringers are already there...
did I say 'stringer' enough times?
