Re: 1970 VA Longbed Project

Finally, the bummer news of the evening. The triplus panels I've had have all fit great.........until now.....

The lower door patch isn't even close. The profiles don't match at all....I'm going to contact them and see if I have an old run by chance and if not, will be looking for another option or another door.

Here's the door with the rust cut out...


And note how the door underneath has sharp angles and details and the patch panel is just barely rounded



From the side view


Looking the other way....not exactly a true reproduction


Note it lines up at the edge... but the body line curve is off by around an inch...
