    They are sending the passanger door again today and have promised once again better packaging, not sure what they'll do. Lets pray this one arrives safe because they have refused to send anymore if this one fails. It would leave me no option but to have one of the other doors repaired and not gaurenteeing a good finish.

    Gutted about the doors keith, they really are taking the piss now.

    Have you not still got the doors off your old nova? Could you not use them?

    I still have the doors, but they are here and the car is in crew. They have sent one more door today, so if that arrives okay then i'll have a perfect pair.

    I'll have a hunt about now, is it the thick screws that hold the handle section you use to close the door from the inside?

    Is there someone up there looking to **** down on me or something? I cannot f u c king believe it. The final door has been delivered to an address in germany, and some car parts that were supposed to go to germany were delivered to Crew.

    What a bloody mess, i'm seriously going to break this project if this door doesnt get sent back to crew without a scratch.

    TNT are bloody useless

    The final door arrived today.





    Once again, poorly packaged and destroyed by the courier. I would highly recommend that no one orders any panels from opel classics unless you can collect them yourself.

    And thats what i'm going to do. On 27th August, i'm planning a trip opel classics in germany to collect two mint doors. Sounds a bit extream, but when i'm paying the guts of 3k to dip, e-coat then paint a shell, it cant have doors full of ripply filler in it. I might pick up some spare wings and any other bits whilst i'm there.

    Sorry but i wont have any room in the car for parts for other people, i'll just about be able to fit the two doors in and not damage them.

    Keith - you had the old doors dipped and e-coated why are you not using these if they are as minty as the shell?

    Sorry if i missed anything
