Pics of my new project

[Bad Brad]

So after getting frustrated with the whole cowl ordeal, I decided to work on something else. I managed to get the side windows and regulators in. There in, but I need to get everything situated.

The doors were replaced at some time and the person swapped the upper frame of the door. So now they are just loose and I need to figure out where to weld them back in place. Here are a few pics of what I'm talking about.



That's why I installed the windows, so I can try and make sense of it.

Does anyone know where this goes?


I thought it might go here, but the window won't roll down because it hits it!

Brad;maybe you should post the pictures in the 66-69 thread.You may get more responses. ROY.

Are you shure the doors arn't off a hardtop and they were being converted to a sedan.

[Bad Brad]

Roy, you arenprobably right on that. I just didn't want to make a bunch of new threads, but I will make on in the 66-69. Also, I start work next week so I won't have any free time for a long time.

StPro, I thought of that too. It's hard to find pics of doors from a 66 sedan! Lol.

Brad;after reading Stpro's remark,I have to agree especially after looking at your pictures afain.The door bottom half does look like a hardtop door. ROY.

[Bad Brad]

I would agree to Roy. I would think it could still work if I weld it in right. Not sure though. I would look for other doors, but finding a nice set in Minnesota will be a challenge! I made a thread in the 66-69 area to see if people could maybe get some pictures to compare. thanks for taking the time to help me out, I know I have been flooding the site lately

Here is a pic from a hardtop. Can see that it is different than what I got. I dunno, I will get it figured out.

Brad;don't worry about flooding us with questions,that is what is so cool about this site,someone will have the answer!!!! ROY.

Yea there defiately not hardtop doors, I really don't know what there plan was, but far as putting them back I guess you would need to align the lower part of the door as close a posible and the adj the upper to the opening and tack weld it in position. Would be my best guess.

[Bad Brad]

Yea Ratical, that was kinda my plan of attack. That's why I installed the glass back in the doors to help align the top. I need to adjust the bottoms a little better first and then see what happens! Lol Thanks for all the help.
