Well, the weekend was good to me. I got one door finished and the other done on the inside, as well installed AND removed the power window mechanism and the Bear Claw latches in both doors. The drivers door needs the lower outer skin replaced, but that will be for another weekend.The lower patch took me hours to fit into place, but it welded in nicely and won't need any filler.

Not the best picture, but it's done.
I also got some cab patches done.

It is pretty close, I hope it'll finish out without any bondo. We'll see.
I also got the 3rd wiper hole filled.

This one will finish out with only primer and some sanding.
Then there were the drivers side mirror holes. The upper was crushed down, so I scored it with a cutoff disc and then pried it up with a screwdriver, very small lifts until it was almost in place, then I welded it. 3 cabs and all of them have the same issue. The other was a hole from something else that the PO did, so I patched it while I was at it.

That upper mirror hole will take some more work, but it is almost level now. Several rounds of weld and grind to get it back up to where it is.
