Very nice work so far! :D Im starting off the same way. I like to be as original but dont mind having custom work too.

I see how the side frame is now. I will have to create one because I am missing the metal frame completely. What were you thinking in modifying on it? The way it slides and shuts?

There's no metal frame what you are seeing is a fiberglass frame.only the front piece slid back and the back piece don't move to the front.i'm not sure yet how I want to do mine but I sure I will find a way.
