On my first truck I remanufactured my 12 cab Ford doors. It was no easy feat let me tell you...
First off I stripped the rotted outter skin off by cutting the spot welds and using an air chisel to separate the skin from the frames.
My frames were rotted out about 2/3 of the way down from the top.
The curved lower section is tricky although as previously posted, all the metal work can be made on a sheet metal brake.
I had a metal fab shop bend me up the required pieces and had them roll form the curves to original dimensions.
It took a lot of patience to carefully reweld all the bits back together,
Afterwards I reskinned the doors and spot welded the metal to the frames carefully trying to replicated the original weld locations.
I think the doors took longer to do than re fabricating the entire box (tray)...
