Does anyone please have a close-up of the area where the door sill meets the bottom lip of the rear fender? The DAPO "repaired" mine! Thanks.

I think I understand your question and I assume you are looking for pictures of how it is normally built.

Search in these build threads and you should find your anwser.

Basically, the door jamb where the latch is goes down and becomes tangent to the sill plate. The sill plate continues a little under it towards the back of the car but quickly ends. The jamb was brazed to the sill upon factory assembly.

Hope this helps, good luck with your project!
