If rocker isn't installed I personally measure the gappage between the A pillar, roof, and B pillar. On my '66 the plate that the hinge bolts bolt to slide around a bit to allow for some adjustment. Starting the bolts and lightly snugging them up finger tight still allows you to gently move the door around to adjust your gaps.
This is one site that may be of way more help than what I can give.
