The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Re: What did you get done on your 'Bolt today?

I removed the doors to start body work a few months back and recently finished rebuilding all four door hinges. Knowing how difficult it was to align the doors on this 64 year old truck I had visions of chipped paint and dents when I go to reinstall after paint. I recall reading that someone used pins or nails or whatever to capture alignment so I decided to drill & ream alignment pin holes through each door / hinge. I drilled and reamed them for .250 pins and fabricated pins for use when I'm ready to reinstall the doors ( one of these months) . I used a 15/64 drill and a .250 reamer. Wrapped tape around drill shank to make sure that when I broke thru I didn't smack into the door skin on the other side. Babied the reamer through and yep I used cutting oil . Here's some pics...
