Shop around. I think I paid $300 each for the doors. I did some trading with old parts, frame, rough bed and so on, so I'm not really sure.

You'll still have to wipe with filler, as there are some very slight pressing marks and so on, but these were much easier to work than doing a bunch of patching on the originals. I know, others on here swear by the originals and they may be better, but mine were rusted thru where the hinges mount, one hinge had been welded on, and when they went thru the media blasting they basically came apart.

I'm happy with the Goodmark door...
