A bit of heat to loosen the hinge bolts. There are two different size bolts for the top and bottom hinge. And the rotten bailey channel.

The cab with the drivers door fitted and showing the difference between where the door wants to sit and where I want the door to sit.

I thought the passenger door was as good as the dirvers dide but I noticed some rot in the bottom skin. On closer inspection you can see that the entire bottom haf of the door skin has been replaced at some stage and the join just below the rib was leadwiped.

These are the other five doors I have to work with to find another pair. These two from the original rusty Tilly are very solid and only surface rusted. Unfortunately someone sat a large excavotor bucket on the roof and crushed the top half of each door.

The other three are badly rusted in the bottoms but are otherwise straight. One has had a different winder installed.

Am I thinking there might be some grafting together coming up?

My Molasses bath is beginning to pay dividends, I just need a spare day to clean them up.
