I know all the guts are different but I have a buyer wanting my 72 door for his 67, do they make clips to put in bottom of door panel area to accept the 67 lower door panel screw. Thanks for any help, Randy

Yeah. I think they are called Box Nuts. I got mine at Ace Hardware. Take a '67 - '71 bottom panel screw along for a fit. They have spring clips on 2 sides around a steel nut that fit into the 67 - 71. They snap right in to a rectangular hole. It's something like 3/8 x 1/2". [From memory, so don't take it as fact.]
