Fixing the Doors - Triumph TR7 Restoration Part 3

Work continues on the 1976 Triumph TR7 restoration. This time, I'm working on restoring the doors. They were in okay condition, but the bottom of the drivers door had rotted away, no doubt due to clogged water drains that let water sit in the bottom of the door.
That was cut out and replaced, then I stripped all the paint off the doors and sprayed them with epoxy primer ready for the bodywork to be finished and prepped for paint.
I also worked on the door hinges; the drivers door hinge had worn out and so I needed to repair this and replace one of the door pins.
