Default Update on door

Nothing like an event like Corowa to get you motivated.

Finally finished the passenger door. Pleased with overall result but like any project there are things that aint quite right. There are also a couple more things I have to finish... but good enough for an outing.

Bottom hinge had to be carefully bent in a vice prior to painting. Trial fit of the door revealed bottom of door fouling on floor as it shut.

Dove tails purchased from Macs (Via TCR Melbourne). Exactly the same as the old ones.

Original clips off this door but you can get these from Macs as well. Same with the canvas rod holders. Although they do not look exactly the same.

Door handle as close as I could get. Same shape but different groove along the handle.
