Has anyone on here had or seen major surgery done on their door post area? My vert has some rot in there that is going to be cut out and replaced, but will also be strengthening the area with .100" plate and possibly adding some structural cross bars/uprights.
Rick/ZR thx for the opinion when you had a look; do you have any pics of past jobs similar to this ?

Any info, pics or experiences would be appreciated. Will be cutting the top of the inner fender area beside the cowl off for access from above, as well as below and inside/outside the upper door hinge area up to the lower floor of the cowl.
