The Futurliner is rolled out and one of the large doors will be removed for a template to make new ones. The current ones are too heavy and structurally weak to support their own weight when raised.	Don F. and Jerry remove the lettering.
Paul and Ed loosen the lettering from inside.	We thank Ed Devries for once again bringing his handy Hi-Lo out to help in the removal of the right side upper door. He will bring it to Sparta Sheet Metal where they will make new ones using the old one as a "blueprint".
Lifting up the door, slow and careful.	The door was put on a trailer and taken to Sparta Sheet Metal where they will make new ones.
The Futurliner, minus a door.	Dick trims sheet metal for the cab.
