sorry for a late reply we have been very busy with our track day rentals.
personally if it was me I would just reskin the door.
being that I have done so many door skins in the 45 years in the trade for me it's quick and easy. I would also be 100% sure that there would not be one spot of rust on the pinch weld /foldover edge on the door shell.
but that's me! if you have never done a door skin I can see how someone that hasn't done one would be apprehensive.
doing one on your door would take cars of the ugly welds and the rust on the inside of the skin.
doing the alignment of the new skin on the door shell for proper gaps isn't really that hard to do.
when doing a door skin it's about taking your time and going slow with folding over the edge of the skin to the shell. fold the skin over very little at a time working around the door. if you fold to much of the skin at time time in one area you will end up damaging the skin on the out side surface.
having the proper door skin hammer and a quality dolly is also a must.
once you get most of the skin folded over but not folded over tightly so the door can be fitted on the car to check your gaps and to make sure you are still in the adjustment window of the door on the car you finish doing the folding over the the skin to the shell.
