LF Wing panel alignment

 Got the left side front lower wing replaced with new BMH metal. 


Next up was to fix the door gaps. There were so many layers of paint that it needed to be stripped before the actual door lines could be seen. Todays work was to disassemble the driver side door and strip the paint, then align the gaps.




Used a heat gun and putty knife to remove the paint on the door skin. When the paint is 7 or 8 layers thick paint remover takes forever because it only strips a layer at a time. The heat gun takes it all off in a single pass with no mess



Had to do some hammer work to even up the door gaps. All the outside metal work is done on this side now.
