door repair advice

Hi all,

Thanks for the recent advice on buying - I have just bought one off a member from this site; yipee and I've already 400 miles in two days!

There are a few areas that need some attention and I'm starting with the doors. All five doors show signs of rot at the bottom, although the outside skins are ok. Can a repair panel be soured or is there an easy fix?

How much should a repair cost or is evilbay more cost effective?

Depends if you know a friendly welder and paint sprayer. And depends how bad the doors are.

Get a few quotes. Then you be able to judge it better.

Fair comment - I intend to blast and respray the wagon myself. It's just I've never tried welding (probably because I don't own a welder and wouldn't know which one to get!).

Anyone know a welder near York?

try YRM metal solutions for the bottom rails for the doors. The skins are Ally and not really weldable.

This bloke offers a door repair service but it's not cheap.
