Interesting that the top panel of the pickup posts/windshield frame was seemingly not used in the construction. The 150A Wagons did use this - and kept the fabric covered sun shade.

Still, the effect is very natural and looks much as a period car might have.

I'd leave the D-nuts. Put dome headed bolts into them to keep water out.

More than likely the doorposts will outlive the wooden parts of the body.

Forward looking statement there...
