It looks like those are the only two solid points holding the door on. Would a second hinge keep the door in place along with some type of L ridgeor lip on inside rear to prevent the door from coming in? It would appear that the door will not "cushion or absorb" much of a blow, just push the entire door in on the passenger or driver, a second hinge and a metal lip at the rear would help transfer some of the impact to the door frame and onto the birdcage. I may be missing something I can't see in the photos though that may already address that. ( you must have been really tired one night, that's the first shot of your shop hasn't been spotless.. ..)

Ken,

It's a Cobra. Anyone who wants one has a death wish. JMHO.
