    Aluminum doors?

    I know Alan (UK) was going to do a production run of aluminum doors, but I PM'd him and got no response. I'm sure he will eventually get back to me, but I thought maybe I should also pose a general question to see what kind of response I get.

    Anyone know if he (Alan) is making them, or if there are other folks making them? If you have first-hand experience with any of the available products, what are the quality levels like?

    thanks,
    Jordan

    More Aluminum Doorskins . . .

    Interesting thread, w/ some input from Ernie W --- who's always worth reading . . . regarding some other bits that'd come in handy
    http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...kundensport%2C


    Kundensport built a car, too --- a blue S/T replica . . . that I thought they'd fabbed some skins for


    And wasn't someone building an S/T rep in Australia that they'd done the same?


    Anyway . . .

    Hey, that's cool. I don't see the front bonnets in their online store though.

    thanks,
    Alan showed me his aluminium doors when I met him a few months back…..they're a work of art….





    He's in the process of moving to larger premises and very busy…worth giving him a chase.
