Door bottom repair panel
Anybody know which parts company has a patch panel to repair just the bottom inch or two of the bottom of a 28/29 closed cab door?

Re: Door bottom repair panel
I think Howell's is the only company that makes the door patch panel as far as I know. Howell's is not known for high quality sheetmetal parts, but their pickup patch panels could be decent. I have never bought and installed one. I think most parts suppliers sell Howell's pickup door patch panels. You might call Bratton's, Bert's and Snyder's and ask who's panels they sell.

Howell's makes crappy panels and has no customer service.

Re: Door bottom repair panel
As was mentioned, Howells quality isn't very good, but it is a panel. What I've noticed is that their bead doesn't look like the original. The only other option is make one.

I have not heard about their in-person service, their phone, and online service yes but not in person.

Re: Door bottom repair panel
Go to my picture and click on it, then go to my album, "My A". There's some pictures of how I fixed my front door, making my own patch. You have to go through them as they are out of order. It wasn't hard! BTW, You'll probably need to make the wooden (Ash) piece that usually rots out with it.
