Doors

Tackled the door hinges today wanted to make sure that they fitted before I painted them ,they didn't .
had to remove the top corner off the hinges to give me enough adjustment to get the two easiest screws in (the top one looks a challenge) .
GD manual says that the hinges can be fed in from the inside of the car after assembly .mine didn't so had to put the locking pins in after (long nose pliers and trusty adhesive tape to the rescue.
The hinge holes were already cut out by GD but still needed a bit of "fettling"

Hinge from inside the car (note the top hole in the gods)

 

Once I had the hinges swinging then fitted the rest of the door metalwork so i knew were it went ,the was a bag of bolts in the pack and its a bit of a guess what goes were only time will tell

Door metalwork fitted

 



 

once happy marked all the bits using saw cuts 1 for left and 2 for right marking the top of the top hinge and bottom of bottom hinge (pinched this idea from Dale !)

and then painted them with Hammerite

Needs to dry before the wife walks into it
