:thankyou: I knew how I wanted the door finished .... just never done a door skin before, so with some patience and a second AMD door skin, 3M bonding adhesive, Lizard Skin Sound Control, POR 15 and some Finish One epoxy primer we have one finished door! :lol:

Good Garage Day!
 
Got-R-Did the passenger door has a skin permanently attached! A good garage day fer sure, got the window fuzzy re-inforcement welded to the skin, epoxy primed that and the opposite side of the frame, broke out the 3M adhesive and got the skin on the frame.

Welded the window channel to the skin.

Epoxy primed before the skin goes on.

DONE!

Man I'm glad this isn't a 4 door .... I have to bring the door in the house to cure over night, I'll sand some other day. Trying to get things that need "ABOVE 70 DEGREES" cuz it's not going to be that warm much longer here.

Thanks for looking ....

Thank you .... most of the details will be over looked by the average Joe, but I know it was done correctly! Maybe my car would be worthy of one of your sub-frames someday? It's not in the budget right now, but .....

:thankyou: :thankyou: that means lot to me! I know what I need to do to make it better than GM and with all the great ideas on this forum I just keep moving forward.

I saw Craig's door re-skin in Chevy HP .... nice article, he's the genuine body man alright! But I know my bonded re-skin will keep out water from between the frame and the skin, Craig's method is no better than GM .... time warp into 2013 maybe?

you sure are doing things better than GM,great work so far:thumbsup:
