New project for the slow summer nights in central Florida....... I got a nice set of doors from TimAT earlier this year, keeping my stock '79 doors useable I want to turn these into a lightweight version that is rattle-free without holes for the door handles or key.....
It did not take much to skin the doors, here's a pic of the pass side door shell after I cut out the 30lbs impact bar
Apparently one of the previous owners of these doors had them repaired, there were three different types of glue on the two shells......
I'm going to clean up the shell and the skin, then re-glue it using 3M 8115 adhesive.... Nobody will ever take this apart again
I'm closing the holes for the handles and the locks with fiberglass mat and Evercoat SMC resin...... The garage smells really nice tonight
