Big Delemma reguarding Door Rust..
My drivers side door has got the cancer... pretty bad at the handle,and one spot at the bottom of the door...
here are my options..
1. Sand and grind the door handle and othe rarea, patch holes with sheet metal and welder where needed
2. Replace door with a non-rusted one
3. Shave handles
id be doing all the work myself, i have the metal and a welder...
i need opinions, and lets not just say shave the handles cause i dont intend on this being a show car....id rather not shave the handles but if it will turn out to be easier id rather do it...

I'll go with #2. I'd rather get a healthy door, then go through the pain of patching a cancer ridden one only to have it pop back up some place else.
