Re: 1972 K10 Disabled Veteran First Build

Yes that screw was added in 72, the other year doors had a tendancy to seperate or bend apart in that area so GM devised that as a solution to keep the spacing consistant, somebody here figured out a way to dimple one of his replacement doors and add the screw, don't remember who or how. The screws and the tube spacer have just started being reproduced, before that a clever mod was to use a piece of brake line and flair it, a replacement screw was obtained at a local hardware store.
