    Put up the year. 28/29 truck cab uses a T door, but I don't know which T body style.

    I'm looking at some new door skins (the bottom 5 or so inches) and they are listed as pairs for a pickup, tudor and coupe. So I'm assuming they must be different somehow. I'm also assuming the fordor uses a different sized door.

    I want to know how wide the different doors are so I can make sure I'm buying skins for the doors I have.

    The 28/29 closed cab Model A uses the same doors at the Model T coupe and sedan I believe.

    Fordor doors aren't as wide as tudor's. For the tudors/coupes/closed cab trucks, not sure if they are different or the same.
     
  7. Wouldn't be simplest to just tell them or us exactly what kind of vehicle you are working on. If it is a truck, order truck panels, if it is a 4 door......I think you see where this is going. Why all the mystery?

    I've assembled a bunch of tin that'll be tweaked, bent, burned and assembled into a car. I don't know what the door came off of. No mystery, no conspiracy , no skulduggery, definitely no buggery.

     
  9. No buggery???? What a gyp!!! I'm going elsewhere for my kicks.
    I guess I'd measure the doors and pass the info along to the vendor

    Buggery doesn't come cheap my friend, I can't just hand it out like candy on Halloween.

    30-31 coupe doors are narrower than pick up/ Tudor doors by approx. 2"
    Can't remember the exact dimensions right now. The 30-31 coupe doors are also approx 3/4" shorter. 30-31 Coupe doors have a mild arc on the tops of the window reveal, the tudor and truck are basically straigt up rectangle reveals.

    Don't know much about the fordors, but the doors are even more narrow than the coupe and some have the slant at the front pillar.
