I really like the treatment on the front doors. I like to hang my arm out the window too much for that tho!

Well....its been a horrible past two months. A few months ago I injured my knee and was in a knee brace for almost two months so I really couldn't do much on the van. I got that off a few weeks ago and started block sanding the van. I somehow pinched a nerve in my neck and my left arm has been in a lot of pain and my left hand is numb. Have seen multiple doctors, MRI's etc so I haven't been able to do anything on the van. Tonight I couldn't take it any more so I decided to start working on my rear door (didn't have to do too much lifting). My rear doors are barn style at the bottom and gull wing on top and the passenger side was full of cancer on the bottom:

So I started cutting the bottom off of my half door and cutting the bottom of the donor door and hopefully by tomorrow I will finish separating them and will weld the new piece on my door:

Well, finished cutting the two doors apart and then fitted them. Hopefully, weld them together this evening and start the bodywork.
