I have a door on the right, like you, but on the drivers side we can pull the handle you see in this pic (sorry too Steve for the hijack... it's only temporary).

Nice feature! I'll have to check it out at the next show and take some measurements.
And now back to our regularly scheduled reconstruction!

No worries; Let me know how that vent works out. if it does I will use it in the delivery.
I think you are right about the twinkle, I did have some tough spots to weld that used the close your eyes tighter and you won't be blind method??

Started on the quarter repairs this weekend. Spent HOURS fitting the lower panel. I think it came out well. Cut out the upper part but ran out of steam. I want to wait to weld the hell out of it till I fit the upper piece, that way I can be sure it all lines up the way it should.
Hopefully by the end of May I can get the metal spraying done!
Also took a pic of the upper piece I cut out. UGLY stuff!!!

OK. I finally have some progress to show. Things got way ugly before they started to look better.
Pulled the whole quarter panel off to fit the upper piece in the right way that took about a week. Did some rust prevention on the inner panel while it was accessible, and started putting it back together. Still needs a bunch of work but my Buddie is helping me out a bit. That is him in the pic.
So I got the rest of the floor pans in some of which we had to make, and I hope to start putting the panels back in the side soon. I figure I hadn't put anything up for a while so the bored people can get interested again and those who weren't can see the painfully slow progress of some of this type of work. As usual any input is always welcome. Enjoy Steve.

Well I am just about done with the rust repair. Couple more small things and I will be ready for the metal spray on the floors and so forth.
Here are some updated pics, and when I spray the metal down I will get some pics of that as well.
