ding ding ding!!! They are repops.. LOL the stock ones had nothing left of them.
I went ahead and sprayed them again and figured they will be good enough for now. i have really tossed a few different color combos for my truck but I am very leaning towards a surf blue exterior and interior grey or light silver....

so i did this till I get to the interior.. I have had no door handles and window cranks since Oct and wanted a door to operate properly. LOL

anyways Here is a pic of the results. I did find a couple of things after cleaning my door of some gunk. A shotgun shot a hole in the drivers door near the bottom obviously when someone was climbing out. which also was why the door panel on the drivers side was so scratched up and weathered... it was a repop. It is white on the back where the passenger one is blue all the way around.





The ultimate goal once I weld in replacement rockers and floor is to get the cab completed inside and then lay dynamat or something similar and do custom interior with power windows
