OK, I started last nite what was supposed to be a simple knock down and scuff job. http://www.elcaminocentral.com/users/dennis68/elco.jpg
As you can see it got out of hand-it's amazing what people do to old cars. Guy before me was a total butcher, filler right on top of rust, whatever.
Anyway, the reason for this post is that I am having trouble getting the doors to seal-it was like this before and I rebuilt the hinges today thinking that would help, I still can't get the top to seal with new weatherstrip. The door trim is almost touching the drip rail when you close the door but when its closed I can see daylight through the top. http://elcaminocentral.com/users/dennis68/drgap.jpg
