Re: 71 K20 Idaho Edition

After getting the bed off the truck and freeing up some more space in the garage I was able to get back to the drivers door project. Back in thread number 7 and 8 I removed the door from the truck to repair the speaker hole and few other items on the door. The door is in really good shape except it had about 4 coats of paint so i decided I would strip the door down to bare metal to make sure there are no surprises and get the level of the paint back to the rest of the truck. If this is not done this door's body lines and detail will not match with the rest of the truck. As long of a process it is to strip a door it is the right thing do do in this case.

I removed the door handle and lock from the outside and then pulled the wind wing and glass to make it more manageable and I also did not want to nick the wind wing metal in the striping process.

Yesterday afternoon I received the Yankee 77 cab clearance lights I bought on the forum here. Threw them up on top to see how they will look. Guess it is time to dig into the forum to see what the actual spacing is supposed to be. I found an image but it is really hard to see what the actual measurement are.
