???barn doors????

Has anyone changed the old barn doors on the '67 Panel Wagons? Maybe changed them into a hatch back or at least put closer and less bulkier hinges on them.

yeap I have done it and it is a job , make sure you get all the hardware that go with the hatch and gate. There are slots in the body that allow for the barn doors or the gate and hatch.

I converted mine from a 70 to 72. I beleive that they are all the same though. Make sure that you get the stricker plates and hinges as there are slots and indentations for them. I converted mine from tailgate to barn doors which is a little harder. Don't have pictures yet but should be able to produce some later on.
