Thread: Is this door salvagable?

    Default Is this door salvagable?

    Is this door salveagable to someone who cannot weld or has ready access to someone who does?

    Would I better off to just find a replacement?

    If you can't weld or don't have access to somebody that can do mild fabrication/welding, then that door is not salvageable. Otherwise, that door is quite restorable.

    Dpends on how much of a stickler for originality you are. 2A doors like that are NLA. I think Ike has some S3 doors, which are just a little different than the 2-2A ones as they don't the have drain holes for the gutters.
    Thing is, that restoration of those frames will cost you at least as much as new ones. Probably more.

    Great input. Not a stickler for originality so I guess I am looking for new 2nd row doors.
