Re: What are your thoughts on reproduction door shells.
Here's a quick look at what I have now.
Do you folks think I'm better off having these repaired? If so... what are your recommended procedures? How do I eliminate the rust on the inside of the door? Should I have them blasted? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: What are your thoughts on reproduction door shells.
I would have them repaired. The lower door skin and inner tub is relatively inexpencive and your doors will be better than the repops when done. WES

Re: What are your thoughts on reproduction door shells.
How do I kill that rust on the inside? I'm worried about that creeping up on me in a few decades.

Re: What are your thoughts on reproduction door shells.
Just spend the money & find some originals. Even if you got the patch panels for free you'll still have a ton of man hours repairing them, & when you get all done... Even if you do a perfect job... You'll still have patched up, repaired doors. (just my opinion) john
