Looks like good detailed work. Are you going to glue or spot weld the skins on? Remember if you are going to spot weld don't paint steel until after you have bent the skin on an welded it, do degrease all the steel first. I then poured paint into the door thinned down so it would run into the seam and kept rotating the door unit the paint was well worked into the seam. (tape up any holes). When re-skinning or stopping the rust Pat 13 doors I remove the latch assemble tape up the holes and pour in a quart of POR-15, tape the last hole and just keep rotating door in all directions until I'm pretty sure to have actually covered all the interior. Then drain and strain the excess paint, and do the next door.

Cheers Phil
