I've got philip head screws holding the hinges in place, looks like the front fender will have to come off, in order to readjust that door.

No sill rust, it's pretty solid. One thing I noticed, the vertical seam under door (is this area also called rocker panel?) has been filled in, while seam is visible on right side. That kinda bugs me, and will need some attention.

There was extensive body/ metal work completed on the left side of car. Door came from another vehicle, as did the entire left side/ rear quarter (B pillar back to tail light). Interestingly enough, I noticed last night that the left taillight isn't fitting perfectly into the hole. Even with rubber seal around it, there is a gap.

That area has to be reworked anyways, since no horizontal seam is visible there either (immediately to right of tail light lens), and the new paint is already cracking in that area. Fun continues...
