I'd like to simply get a whole new door. I'm fixing her up so I can use her for some work, so I'm planning to repaint the whole thing.

If I had the money for a new door, I'd make this one into a wall decoration. Personally I think it would look better if the whole door was intact.

Maybe I should put a protective coat on and leave it as is. Maybe even tint the windows for a Jeepers Creepers look. What would work to protect old paint (and rust) like this?
