Greg,
Somewhere I have a picture (I'll post it if I find it) of the back of a century old building in my old neighbourhood. It was torn down a while ago, but was an interesting study in exterior cladding...! While the front was reasonably presentable, with what looked like original brickwork, doors, and windows, the back was a mishmash of additions, repairs, and "upgrades", inlcuding but not limited to:

While the front was reasonably presentable, with what looked like original brickwork, doors, and windows, the back was a mishmash of additions, repairs, and "upgrades", inlcuding but not limited to:
- brick (not matching the original)
- wood - board and batten
- wood - clapboard or shiplap
- tar paper
- corrugated siding
- Insul-brik siding
