i assume u have to bent the edges to get it to fit? if so do u need some special tool/equipment?

cause the outer skin is a bit rusted, rest of the door is fine, so i figure if i were to get a new skin, fold it at the edge where it meets the wing (essentially hooking it on), i could them fold along the rest of the edges

hmm possibly.. best bet id say would be to get another door from the scrappers, grind the hinges off on the car side of the one at the scrappers.. then you got more room to get the pins out.. chop the door hinges off your door leaving them on the car then you can drill out the pins and fit new door

(we had to do this on one of the race cars at a race meet.. so only had a few hours to do it

Door skin is aa waste of time. PLus you have to weld it onto the existing door.
Far easier to egt another door.
