well the z in the shed is coming along, there was a bit of rust in the drivers door which I cut out.
AND THEN THERE WAS THE PASSENGER DOOR, we actually looked for another door its that bad, it was trowled in bog from the bottom of the door to the centre, most of the bottom swage is artistically fashioned from newtech, and is 7-10 mm thick in most places, all the bog was hiding nasty rust, but after plenty of sweet and hard yakka and a few hours of metal shapenig, its looking a little better.





marking out the cut line


with skin removed I was able to finish the inner frame repairs




bottom folded, and ready for some shape from the english wheel
.


after a couple of dozen or more very light passes, it crowned beutifully, and fits perfect


trimmed the edges and hammer and dollyed the lip over, then put it on the car to check for fit, fits nice so tomorrow ill finish welding the new skin to the original, then its undercoat and paint
