So, repairs will go in phases... Really, only the sides and one corner were bad. I brushed on rust killer in every area I was able to reach with a brush. There was also pinholes forming at spots along the bottom edge. I drilled them out slightly larger and filled them back in and ground 'em down.

I also got rid of a bunch of dents on the inside edge they accumulated over the years. Much easier when you can hammer/dolly them without the door skin on!

I also took advantage of the existing bottom edge to keep everything straight.
