Good afternoon, spent the morning working on the Explorer. The driver side window wouldn't roll down. Took the door panel off but it ended up being a broken wire running between the door and hinge.

I haven't done much interior work but am experimenting. Rust is a royal pain, but I am looking forward to replacing a bunch of rusted parts.

I have my fair share of rust going as well. The worst of which is the drivers side floor right up agains the rocker panel. Pretty soon I will be flinstoning my butt to work.
