Get some Diablo auto dismantling blades for the sawzall, they cut like butter.
Had the quarter panel pushed into the door on my donor that prevented the door from opening. I ended up using a cutoff and Sawzall to open the quarter panel and rear edge of the door to get at the latch mechanism and applied some brute persuasion with a 4 foot crowbar. It eventually popped open - and I didn't damage myself in the process. OR you could get the local fire department to come over and do some practice on your car?I did a couple of searches before posting this, but didn't find anything. I'm sure that some of you have had a crunched door like my donor. How were you able to remove it in order to gain access to the interior and dash? I tried a couple of things briefly yesterday that did not work. Help?
