Aluminum could serve as well for spacing, but it does introduce yet
another metal into an environment that is occasionally damp. Wood does not
squeak; it's light and cheap. Besides, it maintains some of the MG
heritage of wood in the coachwork. If the wood strips are rotting, that
is an indication that there is too much water in the area for too long.
