Seeing these pictures makes me wish I had done a roof raise on my Dina, but I didn't really want the extra work up front.  I choose the Dina in part because it had the minimum amount of interior height to avoid a roof raise.  I don't envy you the work to fill in the fiberglass.

I see you still have the original door.  Ron the Busnut has some real nice 28"x84" motorhome doors that will replace the entrance door with a bit of work.  (They are substantial and not the lightweight fiberglass/foam doors like travel trailers.)  You do have to do a bit of framing and sheeting, but it looks like you have a source for that.

A lot of RV places have 32" wide doors, but they won't fit.
