<span style="font-size: 12pt">Hey Guys - Am finally finding time to fit my doors after replacing the entire underneath of the car (sills, pans, firewall, trunk floor, etc.).
To get my gaps, I've had to do some door shaving and reworking both the A and B pillars. It's not just enough to add body shims. The darn door on PS was just too tight, after all my "careful" body panel refitting.
Anyway, as I rework the door and replace the bottom of the skin and the bottom of the door frame (more rust rot), I'd like to remove the door linkage. How do I remove this fastener on the inside of the door handle shaft?
Also, is it difficult to remove the wood adjacent to the door opening mechanism and along the top of the door. The top of the door skin appears nailed to the wood - I probably don't want to mess with that...
I'll update with more pics of my progress, hopefully later today.
