Should I replace the doors?
Just wondering what it would cost to replace the doors on the 67 before I paint the truck. I am seeing some rust flakes coming from the inside at the weep holes on the front of the under side of both doors. In fact they were clogged a bit til I unclogged them with a key. The wing window on the pass side is not from a 67 and is dinged a bit. The rubber needs to be re-done on both. I am seeing a little bubbling on the bottom rear corner on the drivers side door under the current repaint. The window is a little rough rolling up and down on the drivers door. Is it worth the investment in new doors before a nice paint job? Where would I find them at a decent price?

Re: Should I replace the doors?
Internal workings of the door can be done after the paint along with the rubber. The hardest thing to answer is if they need to be replaced. That all depends on whats hiding under the repaint and the amount of bondo and previous repairs. Also if your game on reskinning etc. Finding decent original doors is always a better choice over repops. Arizona or Ca. are good areas for finding them. Price wise over repair to your doors depends on your ability too.
