Re: 55 2nd serie GMC

I have been wanting to replace the pass door for a while now but cannot find an other one in better shape. There was a lot of warpage in the lower part from old rust repairs and to much blasting i think. So there we go I'm making my own door skin. Cut the old skin off today, fixed all the edges. The bottom was quite rusty. AT the same time i fixed the lower hinge one nut was striped from having been on and of too many times i guess. Tomorrow I'm going to a friends place he has an English wheel so we'll be putting some curve in the new skin we're making. I put a brace inside at the top where i will be welding the new skin, it will keep it from warping to much.
