Father-Son 1974 Duster Project

Today I put the doors back on their hinges and wire brushed out the bottom of the door cavity and sloshed in 3 HEAVY coats of rust reformer " just in case"

The driver door had a 2" wide x 26" long patch butt welded in near the bottom of the skin.

I like the idea of the rust converter paint soaking into the crease where the skin wraps onto the door.....

Started to plan getting the front fenders on. I needed to post in the body/interior forum so I could get the coil springs for the hood put on properly. I'm sure I'll get expert help.

I've decided that it will be easier for me to finalize the body filler, sand and prime the panels while they are on the car. I've prepped and primed the back and inside of everything.

I'm also going to detail the inside of the door frame and complete the sanding and prep of the door edges and jamb. I painted the hinge side and the door bottom as well as the hinge side of the jamb before I put them back on....:-D
