Hey Guys,
My son and recently came into a 1969 ......... pretty badly rusted, but drive train and frame seem be be good.
We welded in a tube support frame and then commenced replacing the floor pans ......... ended up using the pre-welded front pan from JBC and now we are just getting into the front door posts. So - here is our first BIG problem :
The driver side door opening seems to be about an inch to narrow. When I set the post where it needs to be for the door to engage the strike, the front of the door is too far forward and hits the windshield frame/dash.
This vehicle has obviously seen some hard use, but I can't figure out what could cause the rear door post to be too far forward ? Best I can tell, the posts are original. Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated !
