Torch Happy you want to get to your door hinge stop or outside mirror backing plate?
Found this when I was cleaning out the drain holes in the bottom of the doors. |

Years ago a friend of mine cut a hole for his radio, in his 1956 Ford Truck, with a chisel and a hammer.
Maybe the same guy? |

Re: Torch Happy you want to get to your door hinge stop or outside mirror backing pla
To be honest, I rebuilt the door hinges and I'm Still Not real happy with that door stop Hook. I might mod it using those holes (both doors have them).....
Actually I think The Torch originally went in there to mess with mirrors. |

Re: Torch Happy you want to get to your door hinge stop or outside mirror backing pla
Those photos show that I just don't get very far outside of the box with my thinking. Maybe I need to work on that more.
