It may not be show-winning, but it would look a hell of a lot better.I could do most of the bodywork, too. $285 is very reasonable.Quote from: V8Demon;183585How's the bottom of the driver's side door lookin? My eye always seems drawn to it when I look at the photos.It's pretty hairy. If you pull the door panel and look down towards the bottom, you can see daylight peeking through in some areas. I still haven't decided if I want to try and fix it or find a rust-free door as a replacement. Any ideas on how to fix it? I didn't think the ol' Bondo and fiberglass trick would work on such progressive rust. Quote Selected

I didn't think the ol' Bondo and fiberglass trick would work on such progressive rust.Clean out the inside with engine cleaner, hose, parts brush, etc. Then after it dries, paint on some sort of rust stop.Gotta say though, I didn't think the sides coming out like that was possible. Wow dude. Quote Selected
