Removing door sash,changing them................
Hello. I read a topic last week on here about changing the door sash. Such as the need to convert a truck door to a suburban door. Someone.......I dont know who,,said it was easy. Doesnt matter who said it anyway. But i will asssure you it is NOT that easy. I am converting truck doors to burb doors right now. There are at least 5 spot welds on the back of the door that need drilled out. And a bolt,or screw to remove. And on the front there 4 spot welds and a tac weld on the outside. And then you might have to fight 30 year old rust problems.
I will try to let you know how it goes from here. I am sure i am not the only one who will have the need to do this.

Drove by your place yesterday. Nice collection you've got coming along. Some new stuff since the last time I was by...
Saw a real nice '68 for sale at a radiator shop (one of the county comissioners businesses I am told) in Urbana. Good luck with the door swap but I have to know...why put burb doors on the truck? Is this the crew cab project your were dreaming about? See ya, Brian. |

Ah, did you see my 70 panel sticking out of the garage? The panels have burb style doors. Square at the edges. I bought some sweet doors the other day and i want to put them on the panel. But have to change the sash.
That truck at the radiator shop you looked at is decent. But they want $5000 for it. And they wanted me to sell it for them. NOT They got mad when i told them it isnt worth it. But thats what they have invested. And that is also why it has been for sale for 3 years. Anything at my place you want? Let me know. I might give it to you.
