Always learning something new, that is what's great about restoring our cars. I bought a pair of original door panels off the flea-bay last week, arrived better than I could have imagined. The trim pieces are totally intact and nevery been off the panels. That is where the new knowledge begins, never knew that the after the tangs (my word) are push threw the panels to hold the trim onto the panels there were stapled in addition to keep them secure. After removing of all trim need to get the panels to lose the bend they have from storage at the previous owners location. The panels have a distinctive inward bend that will adversily affect their appear after mounting.
Any ideas out there on taking the bend out of these panels before dyeing them to match my car? Date of panels preceed my car's build date by 2-1/2 to 3 months.
Thanks, Gary
