Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project

Despite all sorts of good intentions, I managed less than 2 hours in the shed today.

Part was correcting my previous weld.

Then on to a few holes in the drivers side door.



Looking at the original drivers side door, specifically where the mirror was mounted, vs the new passenger door I got, that obviously used to have convoy mirrors

So I needed to ensure I welded up all the right holes.

Using both the new mirror stalk and measurements from my old door.

It has some work to do too.







Of course it has some interesting inverse dents, but nothing a hammer and dolly could not sort, with caution.



Convoy mirror mounting points.

Prepped.



Adjustable heat sink tool.

Copper pipe.



Holes plugged.



Worked back.



Etch Primer added.

.

At this point I closed shop.

Next job will be cutting some rust from the door skin and replacing with fresh metal.

Done.
