    I have a pair of coupe quarters and trunklid. Do I need the doors from a moredoor or a tudor? I have either one to sacrifice to end up with a coupe. It will take talent but I have a good metalman that is slow now.Advise welcome;naysayers please refrain.

    Truck doors may also work.

    On most makes the 4door sedan doors are the same length as 5W Coupe doors, 2door sedan doors on 3W coupes. Often the sedan door tops need modification to fit the coupe bodies.

    Doors. sedan doors are 1/75" taller in the upper area. Truck doors will not work from what I understand. The 33 doors will work if you lean the front post back as 34 has a 20 degree sweep in the windshield pillar. I have a pair of fibergl*** 33 doors if interested. You would have to cut and lean back the pillar then regl*** them. I think I honestly got one of the last doors out there. I looked for months before finding a rusted shell for $450.....Dave
