NIce work with the door, lot of work to repair all that.
 

 
Those clamps you use to hold the panel together, are you using a bolt through the join? Are they home made or a commercial product?
 
I would be interested in seeing how they work.


G'day Steve
Those clamps belong to John who is doing all the panel work on my Hatchback, I'm pretty sure he would've purchased them from Hare & Forbes.
From the pics there self explanatory how they work

Wow.

The adjustable clamps.

No expense spared there.

Ive got the poverty pack type.

But they are a great little tool to have.

Them and clecos are indispensable.
