Thanks that’s what I ended up doing.Mine are original doors, used a 68 door on the driver side and had to move the door lock back on the inside. Just was concerned about how many knee and hip closures were put into the sides of them in the past.

That’s what I done had the trunk floor in and out several times.

I think I’m good to go. I would think they would stick out like a turd in a punch bowl if they were actually flat from front to back.

What does a straight edge show?

I’m getting what bee best is showing, hard to imagine my doors are that bad. Kind of hour glass shape down the entire length of car.

If someone could lay a straight edge or string along theirs and tell me about how much that would be great.

I would think it about has to be , it’s driving me crazy. I’m seeing the bottom of the door as straight and pretty much straight at the very top but seems to transition to a swoop the further you get to the middle.

On my 69 road runner doors how much if any swoop is there when you lay a 48” straight edge along the mid section (front to back) mine seem to suggest the rear third starts to concave then flares back out at the back end of the door. Maybe it’s supposed to be straight and suffers from fat chicks...

What if any difference in weight between the two transmissions? Just a like to know thing.

If you are fairly on center go to the largest drill bit you can,not to exceed actual tap drill size. You should be able to eyeball how on center you are. If you got it off to one side and are at the root of the female thread grind the blade to fit. Using a caping chisel or punch concentrate on...

Mine done the same thing. I drilled through the center to just short of tap drill size then used a hacksaw blade to split it and collapse the remains..

68 most likely did not have head restraints.

Thanks, I won’t be able to make it this year.
