I took a standard truck door and converted it to one with a square corner to fit my Carryall .
Took the old skin off
straightened it
added metal to it
added metal to the inner structure in 3 places in an effort to make it stronger
dipped both halves and removed the rust
modified the door for rotary latches
moved the handle up into the reveal
modified a bunch of door hardware to get the rotary latches to work
epoxied both halves
crimped and glued both halves back together
AND after all this the door looks like any old stocker that some guy has tossed some dime store spray paint on to cover up the rust .
