When you say the door skins and rear panels were "glued on", is that to keep them in place for welding? Or is that a substitute for welding? Just curious on how that works. What is the glue that is used? Can it be applied to painted/primed surfaces? or just bare metal?

Glue should only be applied to bare metal. You glue then screw it on, taking the screws out after the glue dries.
when thru the complete brake system. Re upholstery the seats. That was a pain in the rear!

Painted. Now the fun part of remembering how stuff goes back together. I took it apart in 2010

Installed the front door windows last month with new trim. Had the rims blasted and painted. Finally got to put the engine back where it belongs!
