Mini update:
My new / scrap door - Its about 98% mint
I was rubbing down some of the surface rust on the bottom of the door and there was an odd looking patch kind of in the middle
Rubbed it down a wee bit more and it became a wee slight hole *as will be shown on the pics below*
Kept cracking on with the rest of the door and its truely mint - Needs a good dust out from the inside but heres some pics - Still a bargain for £30 I'd say:

door looks pretty good, get the rust all away and get the welder out :D fill up the hole, problem solved :thumb:
-
Aye I think we will do it - Most of the rust has came off with a light sanding :)
Put some Etch Primer on it today to stop it getting any worse
No doubt when it goes for paint it will be sanded off and done properly lol
-
bullet hole - car it came off was probably a pimp mobile owned by a gangsta granny! Giving it large in Tesco carpark - got into a "ting" wid one of the homegrannies on isle 3 and she got a cap popped in her door!
Looking at the angle i reckon the shooter was all bent over - I plame the zimmer frame...
lol
The holes an easy fix matey. If you aint got a welder you could clean up both sides really well (make sure absolutely NO rust), etch prime it then make up a small metal patch for the back and epoxy resin it in place. Then just skim over woth filler...
Alternatively if you can wait till the meet and can hang fire fitting it I could pop down with me welder...
-
Aye it won't be fitted for a good while yet mate
You can come down and weld it if you want - Would be interested to see how it would be done :)
-
also - I'd lacquer the wheels. Just a couple of coats - it'll protect them from stone chips and other scratches.
No probs - will pop down the Sunday morning...
-
What time at mate ? Pop down to my house and then we can convoy to the meet ?
