>> Yes!   The 2 early doors are completely gutted.  No "anything" inside of them but a latch.   Of those of you who own or have owned a roll up window spridget race car , how dod you close or finish the top of the door?   Aluminum strip riveted in place?  Fiberglass the top of the door and simply smooth it to the inner & outter door skins?
>> Literally cut & weld a piece of steel in place ?

>> I'm thinking I may have the 2 doors ready to paint within the next week.   That is barring outrageous humidity that is heading northward up the coast.
>> Also at the same time about a week away from painting the rear of the car .   ( if I do not run out of the materials I have on hand.)
>> I'd LOVE to have the rear of the car painted so I can start assembling that portion of this project.   That would allow the doors to be hung and all the latch stuff assembled , leaving the fenders & hood for a "down the road" date.
