Re: Frankentruck
My toes, hands and face are cold, but the new to me door checks are in. It's a brisk, high 20s here in Hickory Flat today.
Since I was able to find the versions with rubber stops, I decided to trim one stop into 3rds rather than halves. I wanted a smidge more opening than what the cut in half gives. It worked great and the doors are still far from the front fenders.
I am getting about 30 inches of opening from the body line point to the door frame on both sides.
This is another mod that I recommend for all 60-66 trucks!
