Adding delivery door to Model A sedan

I am in the market for a Model A sedan, I want something jalopy style,
Well I need/want the rear delivery door, and saw somewhere online a company that sold fiberglass ones, I dropped them a line about adding it to a sedan and their reply was I can't...no details,
Chop tops, channeled etc lots of radical mods on some of these old cars I would have though adding a door was no biggie...someone clue me in...
PS, I have been building vettes, kit cars and trikes over 35 years and no stranger to body work....
Thanks,
Cheers,
P.

 

Lay it out, re work the wood structure, cut the back larger than the finished door so you can fold it over. Fabricate a jamb/rain gutter and weld it onto the body. Hang your hinges and striker/latch.
Sedan delivery

 

I thought about that...

what is grinding at me is within the last 3-4 days I saw on a web site pictures of the rear door and even fillers for the rear side windows, ( I want to keep rear side windows ) now I can't find that $@^%&^%& web site...that's what I get for not saving it....

 

check the forum ... there was someone who did this using tudor parts ... about 3 years ago ...

 

I have done this with a 27 and 28 chevy sedans. They are in my profile pic's, and there are build threads on both.

 

Disregard....
Looks like your going for a glass car....no idear on those.

 

Gibbon made sedan delivery kits at one time.

 

Yes, Gibbon makes the glass kit. They are quite pricey. I bought only the door for my 31 and completely frenched it in. It matches the back of the sedan, including the belt line, very well. I made 14 gauge templates that matched the outer vertical edges of the door, and then tacked these to the back of the cutout in the sedan so the match would be perfect. Nothing else on the car is glass, so I could live with just the door. I usually run with a full load: shade/awning, two chairs, food cooler, beer cooler, two suitcases, tool bag, etc. and it was a tremendous hassle getting this gear into the back of the car over the front seats. The door solved that problem. I am revisiting this, because I am considering adding hidden hinges to it when I rework the car.

This is after a crash a couple years back, but it is the best photo of the door I could find:



(The car was back on the road as soon as I received a new wheel, 2 weeks later)
