Thanks Pops, I must dream in colour. I could boss you around on your paint colour if you like. [hint, hint, wink.] That silver and light charcoal idea you had suited me just fine. Of course, copper and chocolate would look OK too, on your truck, but then you'd be stealing my dreams. Fine looking truck.
The outside skin of my door is now pretty good but there's all of the little pieces that go into a door that make it work right that have to be cleaned, freed-up, adjusted and reinstalled.[

Luckily, my sedan doors had most of the guts in them, so I'm fiddling with the little stuff, now.
pic #1 test fit for the swing out safety strap, I had built the hole a little too low
pic #2 It turns out that you can't just go up town and buy weird little old Plymouth stuff so you have to be inventive. Shock absorber rubbers worked nicely for stopper cushions. I just squashed them out of round with the vise grips and slid them on the strap.
pic #3 I am trying to make my best passenger side outside door handle work. It needs a little more tweaking.
