Pardon? I don't understand the remark. I'm most concerned about the inner forward part of the door where you can put your hand in the hole. Are you saying you would be able to fix it up nicely?

Its looking more and more that I'm going to have to learn how to weld in panels.
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.
