That was fun to do by myself. Glad I get to do it one more time on the driver side door.

I built a wooden frame with carpet on it to protect the paint. Then bolted it to my floor jack and it made the door work very easy for one person. Just two uprights on the outside for the door to lean against, then a small lip on the inside to hold the door bottom attached to a piece of 3/4" plywood bolted to my jack. Used a strap to hold it steady until I got close enough to start the pins.

I was 17 when I singed up for the army because I graduated high-school. I got married at 20 years old to a woman that already had 3 kids and I adopted them as my own. My friends started calling me "oldman'' on my second deployment. They said I skipped the middle part of my life, but I'm happier than ever.

I was going to say WOW what a nice car Cam. Then I saw the fuel pressure gauge run into the cockpit without an isolator. Then I though WOW what a dip ****. Then I looked again and saw the gauge on the hood. So that must be oil. Back to nice car.
