I painted the lock and put some grease on it and then bolted it in place and putt the handels on. I also put in some new bushings and pushbuttons for the side curtens in I bought them at macsautoparts webside, now it neaded some last paint and the doors are ready.
cheers jaap

Really really good work Jaap.

Great to hear you can get the door handles and pushbuttons from Mac's as well.

I'll have to get myself into gear and do the doors on my truck.

Thanks Boob for your info as well.

for me I can't stop so here are some more parts I have done. some neaded some welding like a new rain gutter cup ? or something.
I did the front two noseparts they neaded some hammering to get them into shape. the nose pice was easy it was like new and I putt the chevy embleme on it, looks nice now. I did the inside driverside pannel to and the bonnet pannel.
