Got my doors
Got my doors,still need to adjust them but coming along.I can see light at the end of the tunnel.The brakes are wooing good,the motor run,transmission works.As soon as I get power window motors installed it's off to the glass shop ,and get exhaust.The fleetside bed still needs a lot of work,front clip is in primmer.This is the last truck I will ever build,so I'm getting rid of all the extra parts,I don't have a whole bunch,but you need something we can look

Re: Got my doors
Nice! How's the interior coming along? I only see one seat! Any concerns with such nice paint and still having to work on things like the bed, grill, etc? The black looks very nicely done.

Re: Got my doors
Did you get new doors, paint them and THEN install them without fitting? If you did this, it is NOT a good idea!
You want to trial fit everything first. Brian

Re: Got my doors
I'd say he fitted everything up first. From the fit and finish on his 54 he doesn't leave out any steps.
