Today i finish the
renovation on my
Scamp
I have some problem with my door
First the hinge have some loose , i replace it not great renov
Second the lower front end of the door don't close tight , i correct it , i remove the door and remove carpet, and make 3 saw cut on the inside
fiberglass, i bent the door with a ratchet strp and make
fiberglass to maintain it in the good position i use premix (fiberglass fiber mix with resin )
Premix fiberglass
saw cut
gelcoat application
Now the door fit exactly with the body of the
scamp, before i have 1/2 inch opening on bottom
Perfect fit
the third problem , i don't like that the door was sealed on the carpet , i cut them and resuface the contact part of the door with gelcoat , now the seal is in contact with gelcoat not on the carpet
the seal seat
The other correction was the gravel shield i take my old door hinge and modified it
I cut it and reweld with 30 degre angle and use it for sield hinge
old hinge modified
hinge installed
closed
open
Now the rust on
fiberglass is finish , i make new lock on the bottom make with a stainless stell flat bar
this job finished my spring modification , next week i start from Quebec Canada to one month vacation to Louisiana
I take some information in the site, when i can give on i make it
Thank again Yvon Chayer
