An after thought on the hinges: Terry, what if we were to not drill the three holes for the attachment to cowl plate. Then when doing R and R, you would attach the hinge to the door. Then put the door in position with how you want it. Then reach inside or have someone else place a mark on the hinge for the three holes. Remove door and hinge, drill the three holes, then when replacing it add shims as needed for alignments.
Dv's method is the best method, cut out the plate, attache to the hinge, place door where you want it, then reweld in cowl plate, eliminates lots of problems I am sure. But, on a finished car you may not want to get out the welder, but could be done with enough masking on everything and with fire proof masking.
Went to golden state nationals Street Rod Association show this morning, saw one FFR for sale, about 40k asking price. Saw tons of street rods.
Might take the day off from cobra today, go to movies or just be lazy for a day.
