Re: 1951 Chevy / C4
Next was the suicide doors. The hinges were from rocky hinge. They are nice looking units. I did the drivers side first. I still have to put some bracing in at the rear on the hinges to tie them in good to the body. I put the hinges in the body and then put the door up and marked where the hinge strap pockets were going to go. Then tacked them in the door after I had the door where I wanted it. Checked to see how it swung and I was happy so I welded it up. One thing I have to do is get rid of the old latch area on the door because it springs the door out a little but that is an easy fix. I should have the other door done this week . Then the one piece glass is next and the latches after that.
