Well tonight I got out the wire brush head for the drill and went to town on the back door area where I know there is some rust through. Imagine my disappointment when there was a whole load of bondo stuck in there to make it appear better then it really was. Oh well, live and learn I guess. Nothing a couple properly cut patches can't solve really. Will have before and after pics soon (wife had the camera tonight).
Also got the drivers door realigned tonight. Someone evidently didn't bother when they reattached the door. So now, the door is properly aligned, but still need to work on the strike plate on the door frame to get it shutting completely. Will have to realign the right rear barn door as well as it's pushed over into the door frame, so it'll have to be pulled more toward the middle. Probably won't take pics, cuz I find door realignment pretty damn boring myself. At least, I didn't have a fun time doing it, especially by myself and with no jacks or such. Try heaving up a big ole chevy truck door and tighten it in place by yourself sometime. You'll have a blast. No, really.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
And now, it's cool shower time. 91 degrees today here in VA. I'm covered in sweat, bondo dust, paint chips, and rust. Is it odd I'm looking forward to getting covered again tomorrow?![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
