Door Drain Holes
Door Drain Holes
Hi,
The bottom of the doors in my 1931 82-B cab do not have drain holes.
Can someone help me with a picture of where they should be so I can locate them and open them up?
My doors are already painted so don't want poke around to find the holes too much.

Re: Door Drain Holes
Here is a not to good picture of the door bottom. The holes are about 5/16" maybe a little bigger.

Thanks Bob.
So they are just 3@ 5/16" round holes.
Looks like they are right in the corner where the horizontal surface meets the vertical surface.

I went and measured the holes and they are just a hair under 3/8".

Re: Door Drain Holes
I had to look that up. Found that darker hair is usually thinker so I guess red would be around .00375.

Bob,
Could I trouble you (or anyone else) to measure how far in the holes are from the vertical edge of the door please.
Thanks,
Dave
