I hate to say it coz he's gonna tease me about it but Kabwe aka Bam's 55/58 Chevy Truck Project did the bear claws and made it look easy, ok so some folks are a little more talented then others. The windows already kicked my butt I don't want to do nothing else to those doors but paint them, hahaha and eat a Bear Claw from Randy's Donuts.
The altman kit is not hard at all. They have two kits. One uses the original door panel. Just a little cutting on your door panel and that's it. The other one is for those who have a custom panel. That kit is a straight bolt in. Both are simple. Bam on the other hand reversed the pin and claw - a bit more work. If you keep it stock, it's nothing.
