Fight, second round doors opened, metal work, sanding and painting. Big rust, more than other cars ... is it normal?
Skins refers to the outer panel of the door (the part you've removed). They are the "skin" on the door frame, the exterior sheet metal. On the orange Roadrunner, that is called a hood scoop. That one is an aftermarket scoop and is usually called a "Mopar Pro Stock" scoop. Hood Scoops - Mopar Pro Stock Hood Scoop Style
thank You ! now i understand - one skin will be in half original and half new, second i make whole new
Dang, you've got some ambition! From the work I've seen so far, it's obvious you know how to work sheet metal. We sometimes forget your first language isn't English so don't be afraid to ask for explanations.
thank You yes technical English is not so easy i love metal work and restoring old cars i have my own company in Poland, we rescue oldtimers if someone need some help or information - just ask !

Keep up that sheet metal work! Gives me the motivation to also tackle the body and floor of the F body.
I hate to put a damper on this but if those are mig welds the thing is a hotspot for cracks. There's a lot of stress in the welds.
It is possible to warm up the welds with a propane burner to release some stress. But maybe it is to overkill for a car welding jobs.
Do you plan on welding in frame ties? I would highly recommend it if you haven't done it yet. It'll greatly stiffen the car.
about welds, it is Mig/Mag but dont worry about stress, in car like this, is no problem, i have big skill so i know what to do, to do this good only in car like this is problem because body is made half of what volare some pictures? where, how ?
