FD door handles are on the little black area near the windows.... And they were a common fail point from day one. Meaning today they are expensive.
Also, I don't have space for a latching mechanism in my "doors". The doors on here are just skin. There is a small latch I welded in that holds the doors closed, but its accessed from inside the car only.
I won't be able to put the windows up and close the doors, but I'm not concerned about that in the slightest. The car is garaged and my job is so far from anything else relevant nobody is gonna mess with this thing. Oh man I just jinxed myself. LOL
On the topic of windows. They aren't really going to roll up... more like I'm just gonna have pegs I put in them to hold them up while I'm using the A/C and driving.
Try flow coating your paint. It makes a terrible paint job... ok. After your clear coat cures (like 3 days) run 1000 grit over the whole area. Get the clear completely smooth, but DO NOT go into base. Then toss on 2 or 3 more coats of clear.
Your gonna paint yours black? Color sand the crap out of it, and let it shine.
