Hey guys.
I have a gnarly pair of ambulance doors that need some repair. I decided to cut them down, and run the tops halves with a tailgate.
(P.S. anyone have a tailgate in the MD/DC area?)
Anyways. I made a little jig to cut the doors down yesterday and ran into a rough rust spot under the window seal. I took some pics along the way and will continue to update this if interested.
The doors:
The rust:
Weird spot.
I put off making this repair, but is honestly really simple to map out and form if you have a Shrinker/stretcher.
Didn't take a photo, but spent some time getting the residual rust out of the inside + spraying it with some Eastwood rust inhibitor.
Welding in, couple blow out spots getem on the next round.
I guess I'm limited to 5 photos. I'll add a few more in the next post.
You can see the door was cut off on the last photo, excuse the mess!
