Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
Ask him if he has the heavy duty hinges that the longhorns used to accomodate the extra weight of those thicker metal doors...........

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
Ask him if he has any rear driver's side suburban doors on hand.

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
Adam... LMAO!!!
You know, the drivers door on my Longhorn sags... I thought the rust was causing the cab to lose it's 'square'... now i know it's just the added weight of the door! Funny thing is, if he just advertised it as a 67 - 72 door, then more people would be interested. If the Longhorn was as rare as he thinks it is, and he says it is a specific longhorn part, then he is limiting his potential buyers. Thats why at a swap meet, no matter what you have, the part in your hand will fit 100% acording to the seller. |

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
Maybe those doors are rare because they had one-piece windows....That would have been unusual "back in the day"....Funny that he didn't mention it.

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
He weighed the door and it is considerably heavier than a standard longbox door..... He just forgot to clean all of the beer tabs out of the bottom! Sharpie

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
The value on my truck just went up! My doors were thicker than factory too, but it was due to a nice coating of corn grindings from squirrels and or rats.

We should all call him up and tell him he's getting cheated and needs to sell them for more.

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
If this poor guy only knew all the snickering going on about his ad. LOL!!!!
I thought about calling the guy to inform him of his misunderstanding. BUT Alot of the rednecks in my area will take offence to people correcting them. SO laugh away guys.

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
I would buy it but I can't find anyone who sells the special thinner Longhorn door seals and I don't want my door to stick out.

Re: "RARE" longhorn edition door. CL find
I guess the Chevelle wasn't the only "Heavy Chevy" for 72.
