Re: 72 doors ? (new ones)

'72's have a sheet metel screw just inside the door from the mirror, to stiffen the sheet metel. I will try to find a link with a picture and post it later! Martin............................... AND here it is! http://tinyurl.com/hbdp8

Notice the small dimple on the inside just inside from the mirror. That is where the sheetmetel screw goes.

Also the hardware in a 72 sticks out further to match up to the 72 door panels

Re: 72 doors ? (new ones)

The hardware (regulators/latch mech.) interchanges in any 67-72.The dimple on the inner area under the front window channel is the only difference in the door itself.Doors interchange,too.It`s just a "correct" thing.
