Default Re: My new 1968 Nova L79 project.

Thanks Jed. After looking at the top metal panel and removing the old door panel material. I just re-used the crimp the factory used. I bent all the tabs up by using the end of a file as a guide. The hole is square that was punched from the factory. The end of the file through the hole let me bend all the tabs up. Then just putting the new door panels over the tabs; line everything up, and on a hard surface use a hammer and tap the cardboard over the tabs. When it was all done it looked just like the factory. No rivets needed. I did both my door panels today and they came out great. Still waiting on my rear panels they are on back order. I will take some pictures when I do my rear panels.
