Spent the entire day moving the lower hinge on the passenger door, as well as capping off the lower section of the door.

First, I had to modify the mounting pad to angle the hinge

Cut a piece of 3/16" flat bar to weld to the new mount area. Tapped the holes to accept the stock screws.

Then trim up the door to accept the original hinge mount section from the further down door.

Cut out a piece of metal to cap off the bottom of the door

Welded in along with a piece of small round bar to give it a blunt edge

Just need to finish off the bottom of the nose where it meets the door and fab a channel on the inside of the door to accept weather strip along the bottom
