New Nearside Door
A used door was purchased and stripped and was found to be in good condition with minor rust.

Back to bare metal
Door bottom and flange were pristine which saved loads of work.

Welded repairs needed
The top of the door had some pinholes so section had to be cut out and replaced with fresh steel.

New panel welded in
Repair section was made and welded in (excuse c**p welding as gas had just run out!)

New door fitted
Panel was attched to car and fitted up with new weatherseals and mirror.

A shocking repair...
The bottom of this door seemed sound but once the plate was taken off.....

Door skin repaired
Replacement used door had slight corrosion in the front corner but this was easily fixed.

Priming & Guidecoat applied
Door was filled, primed and guide coated prior to wet flatting.

Inner Door face painted
Three coats of colour were sprayed on.
