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 .....

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 must be at the GG in Texas .... I am jealous. My sister lives nearby in Keller, yeah I'm jealous. I'm on the road next week, I'll find time during the day, working nights on the reservoir.

Another good garage day ..... got the garage heated up and the skins all sanded down, looks presentable now. Couldn't spray epoxy today too cold so I installed my new driver's side door latch and hung the door.

Came out pretty close for an aftermarket skin, fiddled with the hinges, placed paint sticks (3/16) in door sill for reference and tightened all down.
The rear bottom corner is a little tight, but I think I can adjust that out
Now if my AMD quarter will ever get here I will have a reference with the door and can proceed from there.

Here's some pictures ....


Both doors sanded down and ready for some epoxy!


Lining up the door!


About as close as I can get them


Fits better than I thought it would

Well, that's what I did today .... hopefully I can get the passenger side door hung and it fits this nice (crossed fingers). Gotta keep plugging away !!!!

Thanks for looking .....
