Anyone have a left side door for an Ace?

As you may know, I crunched the left side door on my Ace. As a possible 'temporary' fix (possibly permanent), I'm wondering if anyone has a left side door from an old abandoned project? Or for the metal workers out there, does anyone have the jigs to make the door frame, and then can also supply a skin that can be rolled and mounted here (US) to get the correct fitment?

I was unsuccessful in emailing you through the forum here.  I have a LHS door from an Ace that's off the road for an extended period.  Although I wouldn't want to permanently separate it from the car, we could look at a loan period that would allow you to have it duplicated, or something along those lines.
   
   Please send me an email with your contact information via the board at your convenience.  Thanks.

Long time no hear, reference N/S replacement door plus new coat of paint and.. and .. all those little jobs you intended to do last year.

Just received May issue of ACtion and note AEX127 is looking resplendent in its new paint,   
Welcome back to AC motoring ,  Enjoy exercising  AEX127.   ;)

Hi Keith - My car is in ACtion? How'd it get there? Can someone scan the page and send it to me? I don't get the magazine any more! Anyway, just picked up the car last week. Still waiting on the grill to come back from the chromer, but the rest of the car looks good, and glad to have it back almost 1 year later. Also had a few things sorted out like the leaking steering box, had new carpets made, overriders rechromed, etc.

Here's a few pictures back in my garage!

Kieth. I think my membership lapsed this year - I mainly just forgot about renewing it. Joined originally back on 1998 I think, when I got AEX127. Still don't know who sent in info on my car for publication!

Grill back from rechomer and reassembled, looks great! Reinstalled in the car (which was quite a job), and AEX127 is now back home and ready for the road 14 months after my little mishap! Time to get it back out on the road as it was meant.
