what i meant by that was by re-skinning the doors when you repair the bottom of the shells you'll be ahead of the game in the sense that not only will you be starting with a fresh skin you'll also be able to perform a much better repair on the shell portion because you'll have full access to the back side of it all.rust is the worst thing ever(there's almost no "absolute" perfect solution long term) and personally if i was able to utilize a set of O.E door skins with this repair i would.they're few and way far between.

makes sense. I was having trouble visualizing - never seen it done. Thanks for the explanation.
I just went and looked at this Grand Prix. If I had a tree to sit it under I would have bought it for $1000 and parted it out. Frame was rotten behind the rear wheel where body mounts came out in my hand. Car is good for parts in my opinion. Naturally, it wasn't just a door that was rotten.

Pontiac only for the majority of the parts on these cars, including the interior. That's hell to find usually. Took me 6 years for my LeMans. So yes The Ponchos are the b*st*rd child of the Early A & G-body cars to locate parts for. No aftermarket companies to my knowledge have stepped in to start reproducing parts. Ours are just spread few and thin.
