Home Built by Jeff Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share #25 Posted October 27, 2017 Are my 240Z's doors completely rusted out and junk? They have been covered up with a mountain of bog and paint, so this week I strip them down and see if I can save them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannyknot Posted October 27, 2017 Share #26 Posted October 27, 2017 Man I would have thrown those in the junk pile and bought a better set but you did a great job of rescuing them. It's a pleasure to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Built by Jeff Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share #27 Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) This week I work away at finishing that terrible door. It is a lot of rust and a lot of work, but I am stubborn enough to keep at it. Jeff Edited November 3, 2017 by Home Built by Jeff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Built by Jeff Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share #28 Posted November 10, 2017 This week I have been back at it, cutting rust out of these doors. I am quite happy with how the repairs are coming along, but it is so time consuming. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Built by Jeff Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share #29 Posted November 17, 2017 This week I finally finish repairing all of the rust damage on my doors. Getting there slowly. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with MIG welds is that they are really hard, which is why they take so much grinding.

I will have to have a look at that for the future. It is a pity I am basically done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home Built by Jeff Posted November 24, 2017 Author Share #33 Posted November 24, 2017 This week I gave paint stripper another go, and it works much better if it there are not 20 layers of paint and bog. The whole car is almost rust free now, just a couple of small bits to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Built by Jeff Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share #34 Posted December 1, 2017 Back into it after having my 911 build video go viral with over 11 million views in the first 5 days. This week it is time to fit some wheel arch flares to my Z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
