Thanks Woody, I see what you mean by a ring. I don't need to work on the sill or any of the metal that makes up the door frame, so I will skip the bracing. Which is good, I would hate to crawl around it. The pictures of the Pinto were great! A ton of work but I love the concept. You don't happen to have the phone number of the lady in the first picture do you?!! I know, she might be a little older now.
