Default May I have more please Sir!!!!!

Nice job on the door.

Very timely since I have to do the same on both of mine.

Any pictures or trick to removing the original skin with out doing further damage....??

I am considering using the new "metal glue" currently used in body shops to install the new skin......... I have been told that the glue in the folded over section insures rust protection better than spot welds.

The cab 11 doors must have been porne to cracking the frame.... mine have similar cracks to be repaired.

Best I can tell the sheet metal gauge is 19....... what gauge did you use ...? a lighter 20 gauge or a full 18.....?? any advantage to using satin coat finish on the new stock...?

Particularly concerned with the curved portion and how you curved the new skin over the frame..... any pictures of that section..?

Sorry for all the ???? but you started it!!

BooB
