Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

"Restored" my driver side door on my 1970 GMC. Removed door panel. Washed out inside of the lower door w/Dawn, brush and rinse. Blow dry w/air hose. Remove upper/lower door trim, door handle, mirror, door lock and "custom" emblem. Wet sand door (lower inside and the entire outside) w/1500. Buff w/Wizard compound; wax, buff, wax, wax, buff... Clean up "Custom" badge, door handle and window roll up handle w/toothbrush and Barkeeper's Friend. Used Dremel to buff the door/key lock cylinder (sweet). Used heat gun to remove old woodgrain trim and replaced w/new...looks great. Had to hammer and dolly a couple of dents in it, also. Put it all back together except for the lower trim before it got too dark. Did not put the door panel back on because there's significant rust behind the vinyl covering...so looking for one of those. Found 3 metal passenger sides in the barn, but no driver.....Absolutely wonderful late fall day in OK, had Christmas music playing all day...was in a good place.
