We have a 1977 VC Vigilant. Right door warped slightly (overheated) and won't seal. I have new doors, but can't get the door off. Left door came off fine with a little WD-40. Right door swings fine, but pins will not come out. Any suggestions?
wd40 is not a penetrating fluid. get some liquid wrench or such, spray the pins well, leave overnight, use a nail set or such and hammer and lightly tap the pins out. can also place a block of wood under the door and tap up that way. don't break the fixed pin receivers on the front panel.
