VICKERS MK6B's resto

I had to rivet the bins to the floor before the top is secured. I have ordered my rubber matting which will be here in a day or so.
I have saved almost all of the perimeter aluminium strips that hold the matting down and as I was cleaning some up I saw OS written in pencil. I will assume it was for "Out Side", as that makes sense to me. It has been there for a minimum of 86 years as it was in between the strip and the rubber and riveted together. The odds are not good that the person who wrote it is alive today.
Another part that retains some of the original history that may not be seen for another century or so along with the Centre punch marks and anything else that was done way back then.
