First job this week was to fit the new interior panel to the cab door and check that the the slam lock fitted.  Next, I gave the slam lock a final coat of paint.  I have been using Simoniz black engine enamel aerosols for small black parts, it appears to be very good.   I also stripped as much of the remaining paint as I could from the emrgency door casting that encases the handle for opening.   I next turned my attention to the cab door sliding window, which I removed by heating the stubborn screws with a paint stripping gun.  The frame needs some repair in places, due to rot, so I needed to remove the glass, which I achieved by finding two hidden screws in the bottom rail at each corner.   I finished stripping the emergency door casting and gave it two coats of primer then started the complex job of repairing the cab door window frame by first making a strip of steel with a beaded edge to match the inner flange of the window.   I then cut out the first section of rot and welded the newly-made piece in place.  The seat backs and the back seat cushions were collected from Ifor’s on Wednesday, they look very good.  Work then continued on the cab door frame, carefully welding a jigsaw of small pieces of steel in place to replace the rot, which was more extensive then I thought.  This took some time to complete and was difficult to grid back the welds due to the thinness of the metal.  I had to remake part of the bead on the lower horizontal as it had separated at the fold, this was important as it was the slide rail for the opening part of the cab door window.
