Need a driver’s door. 1974. Just the shell is OK. Anyone?

They are all going to be like that, unless they have been repaired.

Weld and grind is what we did on mine.

A bit of progress on the 1974. Sorry @Cruiser Innovations the excellent spray paint job from 2012 is gone now.

Just sand.

It’s all in the hand. Here’s the 40 bits I had done.

Done wrong, it will f*** a panel forever. Look at the hardtop side. That’s Ward’s TLC work.

I love it, I love it, I LOVE IT!!! This ole girl deserved this kind of fresh start after the hack work someone had once done to her… Keep up the excellent work and thank you for keeping me in the loop!!

You know what? You are going to run out of room for all these piggies. I will shoot my address to you when you need more space to leave one or two.
