Update 11/9/24

Got the door taken apart and installed the glass and put everything back together.

Installed the door a couple days ago and adjusted it best I could manage. Still has a gap on the bottom but it shuts solid and doesn’t rattle so good for now. Has a gap in the inside garnish trim and door around the wing vent. It looks like it took a lick somewhere in the past and never fixed. But I’m moving forward.

Also found I didn’t install the seal right on the hinge side of the door. Had to use a long swab and spread some more adhesive then taped in place. Looks ok now but going to leave it taped up for another day. The high humidity is making things take longer to cure and harden up than normal.

Sanded the rear headliner retainer and painted it. Curing now. Same for the windshield retainer.

Door panels are ready. I’ll install the passenger door while working on the drivers door which is painted and waiting on the vent window which is on back order.

Got the drivers door glass seated in the tract and to go.

In the meantime I’ll start on the cutouts on the rubber floor mat and get that installed.

More later as I get things done.
