Re: Scott's 1972 Chevy K-20. A place to start.

Must be why most folks say to use original doors, although it looks like your successfully fighting through it. Bet they'll work great when you get done.

Mustard had a black border along the bottom somewhat like yours when we got it back in '86, too, except that it didnt' run all the way up to the body line and didn't wrap around the wheel openings. It also had a straight black strip about an inch off the top of the border. Not sure what type of paint it was, but it wasn't smooth, either. Almost like undercoating, but could have been just sand mixed in with the paint or something, too. I'm thinking about going that route again, too, when I get to that point. Yours would look pretty cool with the bottom black border, I think.

Is that a tranny cooler in front of the radiator? If so, what type is it? Are you happy with it? Thinking about getting one for the towing duty Mustard will see.
