Should I trash this door?
So this door is otherwise fine but as you can see, I discovered this rust on the bottom. I wire wheeled it and it seems ok but I wanted some extra opinions.

Re: Should I trash this door?
Yea, I know a few guys who would do about anything for that kind of good. Be sure to check the inside also as things hide in the dark!

Re: Should I trash this door?
Considering I had to drop the window hoop on the "new" doors my customer sent me for his truck, I'd fix those in a heart beat. By dropping the hoop what i mean is I removed the upper part of the door and trimmed it to fit lowered it and rewelded the top back on the door. The new door was about a 1/2 inch too tall. It wasn't hard to do it took a little time figuring what was wrong though

Re: Should I trash this door?
I sure wish an American company would step up and start making body panels for our trucks that are perfect fits.
