Sure is a nice feeling to see a door hanging again after all that time. :icon_smile_big: Have some questions though posted in the bodysection
how to do the best adjustment. Also I'm missing a bolt for the hinges but I stole one from the chally, it's going apart anyway. :smilielol:

VIN plate fixed up with some paint and a new Chrysler logo. Also hanged the second door but there I need somebody to help with the
adjustments because holding the door and fastening/loosing the bolts is a PITA alone. :eek2:

Today the fabricated headliner was installed, much better material to work with and perfectly installed. :2thumbs: No bubbles or
wrinkles that will never leave. Soon the rest of the interior can be installed, just have to do the windowregulators. :eek2:

Thats the way it is on 2nd gens....the inside of the door gets painted interior color, Although you see alot of them that get left exterior color...the inner doors (areas exposed with the door panels on) are suppose to be interior color.

Thanks Jason :cheers: The sublime would definetly shine through the doorpanels if I didn't paint the black.

Been busy with some puzzeling this weekend, doorlocks and the rest of the parts for a proper closing of my doors. :icon_smile_big:
Big thanks to Mike "lilwendal" for providing me with the plated latches and strikers. :2thumbs:

Forgot to mention the new doorhandles from PG classic, great fitting and superb chrome. :2thumbs: Now busy trying to figure
out how to get the windowregulators back in place. :eek2:

Fixed what I thought should be very tricky, installation of the quarterwindow regulator but It's OK if you take your time and test it before
you put it in so you know the movements. Sadly I miss one of the guiderails (pic below) to be able to do driversside. :'(
Anybody having one over or know who I could contact to get one?

Sorry can't help you there. They were plated somewhere in the US and I don't know how much he paid.

The pivotchannel is ready to be installed thanks to "Jaak". :cheers: What a wonderful forum with all you nice guys out there, the
Moparcomunity really doesn't see any borders. :2thumbs: While waiting for the dashboard to get blasted I installed the insulation and
let the carpet float out a little bit before installation.
