Ahhhhh. Thanks, Neil. I din' think of that. Excellent point!
I've kinda decided to get the estimates based on replacing the door
shell, so I don't think latent cracking will be a problem in this case.
Anyway, if anyone else is interested, I've found a couple body shops
that do fiberglass work in the Torrance / beach cities area.
1) Scott Kenning (310) 322-8745
The Fiberglass Body
4527 West Rosecrans Bl. Unit A
Hawthorne Ca
90250
2) Dieter (310) 513-6211 (dunno the address yet)
San Pedro Ca
(Thanks, Michael Robertson...)

Erik Berg
