47/50 doors will bolt right on a 51 without any hassle with door locks and striker plates. Same with the 51 doors bolting on a 47/50 without any hassles except from the self style experts who will tell you in no uncertain terms that you "do not have a 48 you have a 51". Back when NSRA and most rod clubs limited participant vehicles to 48 and older a lot of guys put doors with one piece glass in their 51 trucks to claim that the had 48.
I remember getting crap from people all the time about my 48. "It looks just like my uncles 53." LOL Geeeeez
