New member New boler owner

Hey I just picked up this Boler who needs a lot of work I can't wait to start working on it. In fact I got it last night and already have cleaned it out and started examining all the issues.

1st in the list I have the usual door sagging issues however it looks like the door needs structural work any ideas on why there is a bulge on the inside near the lower portion of the door?

I appreciate any advice from my new Forum members and can't wait to be a part of this community.
Thanks,
Erik

looks like they hit a tree or stump will cause a bend in the door. Can be fixed

What year is it ?

I see a bit of a gap between the front bench and the body on the hinge side of the door frame on your 5th picture.

IF your front bench is in the correct position, I might be tempted to think your trailer is suffering from body bulge.
