Door Advice please
So I find myself needing a passenger door for my 71. Opinions please on finding a OEM door or buying a new aftermarket door. If aftermarket what is the favorite supplier or brand?

Re: Door Advice please
If you can find a decent original door I would definitely go with that. You'll have far fewer issues with fitment.

Re: Door Advice please
I just bought a set of doors in decent condition with internals for $40.00 locally , If you can find a passenger door in nice shape for $250.00 buy it !

Re: Door Advice please
Just be glad you dont need a good 72 door , they seem harder to find . I tend to hoard those when I find them .

Re: Door Advice please
72 doors are different , inner door parts are different to work with the plastic door panels , but yes they will all fit . 67/8 I believe the outside door handle is different but again will fit .Good doors are still out there but hard to find in my area .

Re: Door Advice please
So I guess at a quick glance you can tell the difference between the flat metal inner door panel vs the molded plastic one.....and trying to make the interior door panels interchange with each other?.....However all doors will bolt on & fit...
