Re: 1953 3100 "Honey-do"
Recently, I've been working to get the outer cowl panels on, and the door gaps set. I don't know why, but this has evolved into several weeks. The driver door was caught by the wind at one point and turned back into the cowl. As I started working the details, I started to notice that the hinges, post and other things were tweaked. I finally got the driver's door set and gaps "ok". I noticed the driver cab corner is off some. Still deciding if I will fix it or not. I'm not sure if I was off when I replaced the outer door skin or had the door out of alignment when I put the corner on or if I simply messed up the corner.
I ended up keeping the old sheet metal and replacing the bottoms. They simply fit better.
Very pleased with the passenger side as it's 95% where I want it, but I can still fiddle with it some more.
