If it hasn't been restored the body will not be straight. There will be ripples and such in it and as KobraKarl said, frame twist did some strange things to doors. Also the front fenders will not be exactly the same in width unless they have been corrected. If it is a 260/289 car it will have the transverse leaf spring in the front.
