Re: repro lower door skin patch
I bought a Hobart handler 140 and I am happy with it. The passenger side fender closing panel was missing so the whole bottom of the door was rusted.
There was no door bottom left for a reference so I had to hang the door, get all the top and side clearances set, then measure 12 inches up from the rocker panel and add 1/4" for the bottom gap to find where the door bottom should be. There was also some repair needed to the hinge side of the door.

Re: repro lower door skin patch
Some rust holes around the door check, Easy to fill with a copper bar backing and got easier as I learned at what not to do.

Re: repro lower door skin patch
This would of been a good candidate for a donor door so I thought I had nothing to lose. My drivers door had only the corners to replace and it was much easier as you maintain all the original door lines, only do this if you need the practice.

Re: repro lower door skin patch
Nice Job. The black interior and white look great together. I've wondered what the stepside would look like with the Fleetside trim on the cab. Now I know.
