The inside of door is now all primed, with spray putty & stop putty applied sparingly. The outside will be to primer stage next Saturday, and weather permitting, door will be painted on Sunday. Hinges are the next thing to tackle. They will need fresh pins.

I am considering sending the roof for blasting soon, to see what evils lay in store there. No plans to start work on that yet, but pays to be fore-warned with these things!

The door curtain frame jig is now finished. There will be a smaller, less complex jig made, for positioning of the flat metal plate at rear of the frame. That jig will also setup location of support legs for passenger side door as well as location for a small metal 'catch' that the access flap closes onto.

Well....thats it for today.
