I fixed the passenger side door. Removed the old skin, sanded and wire wheeled the inside and painted with SPI black epoxy to protect before reskinning.

Hi Vince. Yes. It's heavy gauge and fit well. Only complaint is the mid door body line is a little soft. Its not as crisp as the stock/AMD fender and quarter. I'll have to deal with it later.

I'm really happy with how the passenger side quarter and door turned out. All of my body ref points measure out within a 1/16 comparing side to side now. The car was wrecked and covered with an inch of filler in some places when I tore into it. The quarter was crunched in a couple places and the door was crunched and twisted. i repaired the inner door structure and used 3M panel adhesive which allowed me to work the skin a little before it set up and I made my spot welds.

We re-hoop'd the wheels to get better fender clearance with the new front brake kit and to go a little wider with improved scrub radius and front/rear track offset. I added 1/2" width and moved them in 1/2". The front wheels are now 9-1/2" wide with 6-3/4" back spacing. (Was 5-3/4 BS. Now 6-3/4 BS going from a 7" inside rim half to an 8")

Coming along nicely. I'd say you've done a good job of fixing the body considering how bad it was when you started.

Incredible work! Wish my car looked half this good
